Linda Yaccarino joins health tech platform eMed as CEO after leaving X


Former X CEO Linda Yaccarino lands at health tech startup eMed.

Yaccarino was a longtime advertising executive at NBCUniversal, but left to join X as CEO for two years, where she managed to have a positive impact on the social network’s troubled ad revenue model, despite her and Elon Musk’s shared approach to minimizing content moderation. “To be a leader in today’s healthcare marketplace, companies need to have a fearless tenacity that allows them to not only grow, but to also be brave enough to step forward and redefine an entire industry,” Yaccarino said in a press release. “We are very well-positioned to be that tenacious leader, striving toward our ultimate goal of improving global healthcare outcomes through our groundbreaking services and platforms.”
