Judy Faulkner
Founder and CEO
Epic Systems
Verona, WI

Innovation:

Founded Epic, the very successful enterprise software company that, while not the largest market share, is most-publicly associated with the electronic medical records industry. HIMSS data suggest Epic has five percent of this $1.2 billion market, but EMRs are just a portion of Epic's estimated $600 million (revenues) business. Clients are mainly large hospital systems. Company claims its technology touches 70 million patients. Now also has a personal health record product, with a cute name: Lucy PHR. Notoriously reclusive, Faulkner is said to be a fierce boss with Zen management principles. Founded in 1979, her company remains private and employee-owned.

 

Judy's mission, as told to  WTN in 2002:

"Do good, have fun, and make money."
