In this episode, Bethany Corbin and Kate Batz discuss:
- Why women’s health companies don’t get the attention they deserve
- Creating progress in FemTech
- Addressing women’s health span
- Bringing attention to your health
Key Takeaways:
- Women’s health companies don’t get the attention they deserve because only 4% of tech investment goes into life sciences and part of the reason why is that femtech is relatively young and is still an emerging industry.
- Creating more progress would require companies to focus on getting funding and to do that, they have to spread awareness on FemTech and women’s health care.
- Women live longer, but not necessarily healthier since they have specific health needs that need to be addressed with solutions built to solve those problems.
- Bring more attention to FemTech by bringing more attention to your own health. Whether you are a startup or a user, be curious and strive to discover more in the space of FemTech.
“One of our goals is to bring more focus to FemTech because it is an under-serviced sector and women comprise half of the population. We live longer, not necessarily healthier.” - Kate Batz
