When it comes to health disparities, women’s health innovation holds the potential to break down some major barriers. Today, health care products and services for women account for only 4 percent of the overall funding for health care research and development, while 85 percent of modern moms say they don’t feel society really supports motherhood, according to a recent survey. Fortunately, femtech is looking to address just that by creating technology that helps women take charge of their health and the care they receive. Even further, it’s estimated that investments and VC funding in femtech will reach $9 billion by 2024. Join Worth during World Breastfeeding Week for a discussion on how tech companies are giving women better access to health care and how femtech is leading us into the future.
