Healthcare Digital reports that Philips has appointed Shez Partovi as its first chief AI officer while Laura Matz joins as chief innovation and technology officer.
Healthcare Digital reports that Philips CEO Roy Jakobs confirmed Shez Partovi would become the company’s first chief AI officer. Partovi will reportedly retain leadership of Philips’ Enterprise Informatics business. The report says his mandate covers both AI embedded in products for clinicians and patients and internal uses intended to improve company efficiency.
The article also reports that Laura Matz will join Philips as chief innovation and technology officer after 19 years at Merck KGaA, where she served as chief science and technology officer. Philipp Harbach is expected to serve as Merck KGaA’s interim chief science and technology officer after Matz’s departure.
Healthcare Digital says Philips already uses AI across diagnostic imaging, clinical workflow and patient monitoring. It cites statements attributed to Jakobs, Partovi and Matz, including Partovi’s description of an enterprise-wide role. The supplied material does not independently confirm the appointments or provide detailed employment terms, implementation milestones, product availability or pricing.

The appointments indicate that AI is being given direct executive ownership at a major healthcare technology company. Philips operates in areas such as diagnostic imaging, patient monitoring and clinical informatics, where AI can affect clinician workflows and patient care. The report does not independently confirm the appointments, their start dates, budgets, reporting lines or any new product launches.
A dedicated chief AI officer can make responsibility for AI strategy more visible across a healthcare company whose products are used in clinical environments. That could help coordinate model development, deployment, data governance and evaluation across business units rather than treating AI as a collection of isolated features.
The practical significance will depend on execution. Philips’ report describes broad goals, but it does not provide new performance results, clinical validation, regulatory approvals tied to these appointments, or evidence that the leadership changes have already altered patient outcomes. The cited 2025 company figures are presented by the report and are not independently verified here.

Watch for Philips to define the chief AI officer’s authority, disclose measurable product or workflow changes, and provide evidence that AI deployments improve clinical efficiency without compromising safety or oversight.
The key question is whether Partovi’s enterprise-wide remit produces concrete changes in Philips products and internal operations. Useful evidence would include named deployments, validated clinical outcomes, workflow measurements, safety monitoring and clear descriptions of which customers or clinicians can use the resulting systems.
It is also unclear how the chief AI officer role will interact with Philips’ existing technology, informatics, science and regulatory leadership. The source does not state whether the position controls research priorities, product approvals, procurement, staffing or AI risk management.
