The Board congratulates Ms. Stevens on her outstanding leadership and thanks her for her dedicated service of over 16 years that has led to numerous successes for the organization. Ms. Stevens joined iCAD as its Senior Vice President Marketing and Strategy in 2006. Since then, she helped to build important strategic partnerships, improve and stabilize shareholder and customer relationships, and usher in the transition from a perpetual license business model to a subscription approach, among many other accomplishments. Her marketing and strategy, sales and partnership building skills have created a foundational structure that will serve iCAD for years to come and are a true testament to Ms. Stevens’ skillset as a leader. “We cannot thank Ms. Stevens enough for the commitment, passion, creativity, and enthusiasm she has given iCAD during her tenure,” said Dr. Susan Wood, member of iCAD’s Board of Directors and Chairman of the Compensation Committee.
“Dana takes the reins of this great company at a time of transformation, and the Board has every confidence that she is the best leader to set the vision and drive the plans for the Company’s continued success and growth. She has the right mix of skills and experience to lead us forward having run large, complex technology organizations, delivered strong financial and operational results in the face of turnarounds, and overseen strategy and innovation for the world’s leading breast cancer organization,” said Dr. Rakesh Patel, member of iCAD’s Board of Directors and Chairman of the Nominating and Corporate Governance committee.
Ms. Brown said, “I’m thrilled to be leading this incredible company. Working alongside our talented team, our Board, our clients and partners, I am committed to upholding our vision to be the world’s most pervasive and personalized suite of AI cancer detection solutions for our shareholders and stakeholders. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer death among women in the U.S. With iCAD’s early detection technology, we have the ability to detect cancers early thereby giving individuals the opportunity for more positive outcomes and more lives saved. I am energized by this challenge and look forward to guiding iCAD’s continued success.”
