The Femtech Summit: Cause It's Beyond Gender
*** Please note: If required due to the current situation in Israel, the event will take place online***
About the event:
Women make up 51% of the population, yet the Femtech industry is still treated as a niche rather than the mainstream. This reality is especially visible in the startup and investment ecosystem, where global venture capital funding for Femtech accounts for roughly 1% of total healthcare investments.
The current narrow perspective completely misses the bigger picture. Femtech is a massive ecosystem that goes far beyond targeted medical solutions like fertility, breastfeeding, or menopause.
It fundamentally requires:
A user centric and gender aware approach to building
Specialized marketing strategies distinct from the general population
Understanding the business aspects that move the impact forward
Join us as we redefine the future of healthcare and technology!
What to Expect:
At The Femtech Summit: Cause It's Beyond Gender, we will dive into every single one of these components. Our goal is to fire the starting shot for creating real, global change in the industry.
