WEBINAR: The Unseen Opportunity In Women’s Health

April 25, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Free

Women’s health is a market that is hiding in plain sight of investors. Women are 80% of the healthcare workforce, make 80% of household healthcare decisions, and spend 29% more per-capita on healthcare than men – yet only 4% of all R&D goes specifically to their healthcare products and needs and only about 1% of all venture capital healthcare funding goes to women’s health.

In this event, Linda Greub, Co-Founder/Managing Partner of Avestria Ventures, and Yolanda Fintschenko, Executive Director of Startup Tri-Valley, will share how they came to realize and take advantage of this unseen opportunity – and how others can as well. A fireside chat will follow, featuring Tracy Dooley, MD, a partner at Avestria Ventures, and Neil Ray MD, the Founder/CEO of Raydiant Oximetry.

Attend this webinar if you are an entrepreneur, investor, or strategic partner who wants to contribute to addressing this historically overlooked and underfunded market.

Learn:

  • How healthcare practice and life science has defaulted to men – to the detriment of women and their health – and how we can start improving women’s health today
  • What investors focus on women’s health and what spaces and innovations they find exciting
  • What startups looking to innovate in the women’s health space should look for in terms of attracting investors, getting funding, and avoiding common pitfalls/challenges.
