Healthcare system Northwestern Medicine has tapped a new CIO from within the university investment system. Harisha Koneru Haigh, a managing director with Northwestern University’s $15.3 billion investment office, will take up the role.
“It is a privilege to join a nationally recognized, vitally important institution whose mission touches so many lives,” Haigh said in a statement on LinkedIn. “I am grateful for the opportunity to lead a thoughtful and dedicated team while remaining part of the broader Northwestern community, given the health system’s longstanding partnership with Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine.”

Haigh earned a bachelor’s degree from Washington University in St. Louis and a master’s in business administration from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University.
