Exostar is promoting Amy Hogan to the role of Chief Information Officer (CIO). Hogan is the first to hold that post in the company’s 26-year history.

Exostar specializes in business collaboration software trusted by highly regulated industries—like life sciences and healthcare—for security and compliance.

From VP to Chief Information Officer

Previously, Hogan was Exostar’s Vice President of Enterprise Systems & Solutions. In this position, the company says, she led a number of enterprise transformation initiatives. According to Exostar, these strengthened scalability, governance, and operational discipline across business systems, DevOps platforms, corporate IT, and enterprise analytics.

Now, Hogan will oversee not only corporate IT, but also enterprise technology strategy and platform enablement. Across the Exostar Platform, she will partner with product and engineering leaders to accelerate innovation and performance at scale.

On the financial end of things, Hogan will also be responsible for ensuring that technology investments support differentiated offerings.
