We accelerate women's health innovations
A Femtech community and a 9-month equity free Femtech start-up acceleration program for companies developing innovative solutions to improve technologies relating to women’s health.
Don't miss this event to connect with the ecosystem, get insights about the industry and research trends in FemTech and discuss the growing market opportunity!
Overall, I want to say a huge thanks to this program. I was able to think and understand more about the 'femtech' itself by attending this accelerator program. Companies from various cultures and countries widened my view about what femtech could do, and this program gave me and my company so many great opportunities to grow and get mature!
The program provides unique insights and opportunities which are not available elsewhere. The drive of the team running Tech4Eva is exceptional in helping the delivery of a broad program of activity across multiple subjects. It is only when you start engaging and understanding the support, material and contacts available is when you appreciate the value.
