INVESTOR SUMMIT: WOMEN'S HEALTH

ABOUT THE EVENT: WOMEN'S HEALTH INVESTOR SUMMIT 

According to the Mckinsey study "The dawn of the FemTech Revolution" only 1% of global healthcare R&D is invested in women's health (ex. cancer). The global women's health market is estimated to be USD 12 trl. and growing annually with 5-8% CAGR. Since the majority of investors in the startup enviroment are male, there has not been a historic focus on startup investments in women's health (e.g. period, birth, menopause etc.). This leaves a huge untapped investment potential! 

Angella Invest, EIFO and BII (BioInnovation Institute) invite to the first ever Investor Summit about Women's Health in Denmark. Here you can meet likeminded investors, founders and industry experts within women's health to an afternoon full of inspiration and great networking opportunities.

The purpose of the event is bridge the world from life science to startups to investors, so we can ignite and accelerate investments in women's health!
