'You cannot ignore marginalised communities' – meet the sex tech startup tackling anorectal health. 💡 During the fundraising process for Polari Group’s $539,000 (£417,000) pre-seed round, the sex tech startup faced “challenges” from the VC world. Polari Group is developing a novel device that it says can replace douching before anal sex. Inspired by their research and conversations with members of the LGBTQ+ community, co-founders Anna Vybornova and Dr Dr Henry Blest have developed a single-use, ball-shaped device designed to be inserted into the rectum before anal sex to prevent what they call “faecal accidents.” ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eMdes7ft 🔗 #sextech #healthtech #startup #biotech #investment #funding #research #health #UKtech
