Femtech became more than just a professional interest the day my friend confided in me about her struggles with postpartum depression. The challenges she faced in finding support and understanding in a healthcare system that often overlooks women's specific needs was heart-wrenching. It was a wake-up call for me, highlighting the critical role femtech plays in addressing the gaps in women's healthcare. How we're making a difference at Boundless Agency: 🙋♀️ We prioritize partnerships with femtech companies that focus on underserved areas of women's health, from menstrual health to mental wellness. 🙋♀️ We create campaigns that tell the stories of women from all walks of life, highlighting the transformative impact of these technologies. 🙋♀️ We advocate for research and investment in femtech, using our platform to spotlight the importance of innovation in women's health. 🙋♀️ We foster a community of support, encouraging conversations and connections that empower women to take charge of their health. For me, femtech isn't just a market—it's a mission to ensure every woman has access to the care and support she deserves.

The Femtech sector, focused on women’s health, holds substantial potential*. Its technical solutions could lead to significant advancements in health and well-being for women. Reminder! when innovation in women’s health is promoted, it’s not just women who benefit. I plan to direct my attentions and personal investments towards this sector to support these crucial innovations. There is already an abundance of companies making a difference. A couple of my personal favorites are Elvie and Clue (co-founder Ida Tin coined the term Femtech in 2016). Do you have any tips in regards of companies, organizations, podcasts, investment opportunities? Here is my tip of the day: www.femtechfocus.com *The Femtech industry is estimated to be worth approx 1 billion dollars by 2027, thus more than 10 billion kronor. Still Femtech only receives peanuts in investment money compared to other digital health areas. SURPRISE! 😏 #femtech #womenshealth #investment”

Investors' interest in women's health is growing, but we still have a long way to go. When I founded Visana, we were focused on conditions like endometriosis and fibroids - conditions that have impacted many women in my family. Despite impacting over 1 in 3 women, investors often had never heard of these conditions. Some investors are expanding their view of "women's health," no longer considering it a "check the box" in the portfolio, often focused on maternity. Instead, they're taking a more comprehensive approach to women's health, with multiple investments across conditions that uniquely, differently, or disproportionately impact women across all life stages. We're still in early days in women's health. Sorely needed innovation will continue to get funded, especially as we see an increase in female investors get promoted within their firms. #womenshealth #digitalhealth #virtualcare #healthtech

💡 Speaking Truth ! It's unfortunate that some women's health communities engage in tearing each other down. It's a sad to see women contributing to this cycle of negativity. Let's not use branding and marketing efforts to preach empowerment for women while lacking respect for one another. Consumers are discerning and deserve transparency, not misinformation. At FemTech India , we advocate for women's health with authenticity and integrity, backed by research and efficacy. Through thorough market analysis, we strive to identify underserved gaps in women's health so companies can build better and serve better to women's needs. We have always worked to foster a culture of support and empowerment within the women's health ecosystem, where collaboration and respect are paramount. Women deserve better, let's build better together.

“No one can feel what you feel as much as you do"- Afeez Olajire Revisiting the #transformingtogether sumit hosted by the Eden venture group. This powerful statement, delivered by our Managing Partner, Afeez Olajire, still resonates deeply with us. His words highlighted the important position which women have in transforming MNCH. As the primary caregivers and the ones most affected by maternal challenges, women's active involvement in developing and implementing solutions is crucial. By carrying them along with interventions, we can better understand and address their core needs. #transformingtogether #revisiting #maternalhealth

Periods Shouldn't Hold Us Back. PERIOD. As women, we’re all too familiar with the need to juggle, push boundaries to break glass ceilings and redefine success. We are forever managing deadlines, leading teams, and navigating a working world that was designed without us in mind. But one thing shouldn't hold us back: our periods. At The Sabi, we believe periods are a natural part of being a powerful woman, not a roadblock. That's why we're thrilled to announce the launch of The Gentle Period - a powerful adaptogenic infusion brimming full of herbs used for centuries in traditional women’s medicine and now backed by various studies for their efficacy. The Gentle Period is more than just a product – it's a statement. It's about creating an environment where women can thrive, free from discomfort and empowered to reach their full potential. It's about fostering open conversations about women's health and prioritising well-being alongside ambition. Join the movement.
