Fantastic piece on our recent Women in HealthTech event.

Despite the undeniable impact women have in this sector, less than 2% of health-focused venture capital funding goes to female-led startups!

"In 2025, it should be easier for women to succeed in health technology and innovation—but the reality tells a different story."

What a privilege to spend the day around such inspiring women at this year's @nhsconfed.bsky.social Women Leaders Network Conference.

Jam-packed agenda, including a fab closing keynote from @tracybrabinmayorwy.bsky.social on how women with lived experience are leading the way in West Yorkshire 👏

Finishing the day with the fantastic @tracybrabin.bsky.social on how she became an MP, the power of networks, imposter syndrome and the horrific loss of Jo Cox MP which we all remember so clearly.

Had no idea we grew up in the same place either 😅 inspiring!
