The company's chief executive officer Kraig McEwen was also recognized as CEO of the Year. The Pittsburgh Technology Council's annual Tech 50 Awards recognize southwestern Pennsylvania's most successful, innovative and thought-leading technology companis, which have become the backbone of Pittsburgh's new economy. The awards represent transformative technology centers of excellence, including technology companies at all stages of growth. Tech 50 also recognizes the region's top technology executives. 2014 was a transformational year for Aesynt. Following its divestiture from McKesson in late 2013, the now privately-held company emerged as a leader in enterprise medication management - helping hospitals and health systems deliver quality care, reduce costs and enhance operational efficiency through automation and information management. Aesynt acquired Health Robotics, a global leading supplier of automated technology for intravenous (IV) medication preparation, compounding and dispensing, earlier this year and is now the only company on the market that provides a complete solution for central pharmacy automation, regardless of medication type or distribution model. "We are thrilled with the recognition of our achievements over the past year as we launched our new company, focused on creating solutions to help health systems to improve care, build stronger businesses and manage the tremendous change underway in healthcare," said Kraig McEwen. "Our employees rose to the challenge and it is gratifying to see their hard work acknowledged by the Pittsburgh technology community."
