Femtech pioneer Ida Tin on the future of women’s health

Giant Ventures is a multi stage venture fund, founded by Cameron McLain and Tommy Stadlen. We recorded these first episodes at our live Giant Ideas summit, held at London’s Tate Modern. The Giant Ideas summit brings together 200 founders, CEOs, heads of state and other leaders to explore how we can harness cutting edge technology as a force for good. 

Today we bring you Ida Tin on the future of femtech. There are perhaps few more qualified to talk on the topic of Femtech than Ida - who in fact coined the term ‘Femtech' in 2016. Ida is the co-founder and former CEO of menstruation-tracking app, Clue - which she originally designed to track her own cycle in the absence of any technical solutions. Clue now has 11 million users across 190 countries.

In this talk, Ida discusses why Femtech matters, what today’s definition includes, why there is still a woeful response to technology for menopause and hormone tracking and why we need to keep listening to women when they tell us which problems really matter. It’s an inspiring call to action.
