We are excited to share some impactful moments from our latest gathering with the One HealthTech Bristol community. Held at Mace & Menter in Bristol, our discussion centred on critical issues in Women’s Health and Femtech.
🔍 Key Discussion Points Included:
Gender Bias in Technology: A significant focus was on how the prevalent gender imbalance in the tech industry can influence the development and marketing of products, often leading to overlooked needs in women's health technologies.
Research Gaps: We delved into the historical underrepresentation in women's health research, which limits the understanding and effectiveness of femtech solutions.
Market Education & Awareness: There’s a compelling need to boost awareness and educate both consumers and healthcare providers about the benefits and availability of femtech products to ensure their adoption and effectiveness.
Accessibility & Inclusivity: Accessibility remains a major hurdle, with many femtech products not reaching all women, particularly those in low-income regions or marginalized communities. We discussed strategies for creating more inclusive products that cater to the diverse needs of women worldwide.
Scalability Challenges: The conversation also covered the challenges of scaling femtech products across various markets, highlighting the importance of user-centred design and understanding cultural differences in women’s health perceptions.
🌟 Special Thanks: A heartfelt thank you to Lalaine Magnaye for sharing her enlightening research on the women’s health gap and her inspiring journey as an entrepreneur. Your contributions made the event truly special!
🙌 Appreciation to Our Hosts: Our sincere gratitude goes to Mace & Menter for providing a perfect setting for our engaging discussions and networking.
✨ Looking Ahead: Inspired by today’s discussions, we remain dedicated to advancing women’s health through technology. Stay connected with One HealthTech Bristol for more events and initiatives that empower and innovate.
