Welcome to FemTech
*Winner of the "Best New Club, Society or Project of the Year" Student Union Award 2024*
The only FemTech society in London
Femtech is a rapidly booming industry that focuses on the research and development of products, technology & services to improve women’s health. Throughout history, women have always been excluded from medical trials and long-term studies due to factors such as menstruation and pregnancy. This has led to a huge gender health gap, which still persists today, whereby women are often misdiagnosed and mistreated due to the lack of understanding of the difference in symptoms between men and women. However, this is all changing.
The industry has grown immensely in the past few years – more money, effort, and attention are dedicated to tackling unmet needs in female healthcare, from collecting new health data, conducting research studies, developing new forms of treatment and assistive technology, and more.
As a society, we hope to:
- Shine light on inspiring individuals and organisations who are changing the course of female healthcare research;
- Supply a platform for learning and networking opportunities within this field
- Expand this awareness and vision to a wider and more diverse community.
Throughout the year, we host frequent events ranging from educational lecture series, panel talks from professional speakers, networking opportunities, startup fairs, social events, as well as our annual collaboration with the FemTechnology Summit and our most-anticipated FemTech Conference.
