Femtech refers to companies that use technology to address women's health issues. But it's also more than that. It's an emerging category for investment. It's a space that helps founders connect with each other to help grow their businesses. It's an increasing topic of mainstream press, both within and outside the tech world. In other words, femtech is a movement, one that's fast becoming a revolution.
Since the term was coined by Ida Tin in 2016, femtech has become a force for moving health concerns for all people with vaginas forward and showing the world that not only do their problems matter, but also that they are ready to demand real solutions.
