In her debut book, The Vagina Business: The Innovative Breakthroughs that Could Change Everything in Women’s Health, Marina Gerner, PhD shines a light on the innovators challenging the status quo in women’s healthcare. Despite making 80% of healthcare decisions, only 4% of medical R&D focuses on women’s health issues. Through interviews with 100 entrepreneurs, researchers, and investors across 15 countries, Gerner highlights groundbreaking solutions for periods, childbirth, menopause, and more, while exposing the hurdles femtech startups face in a male-dominated VC world. Gerner will discuss how we can drive more innovation in this underserved yet crucial area. The Vagina Business has been recommended as a “best business book to read” by the Financial Times and Kirkus Reviews has called it “energetic, thoroughly engaging reading” and emphasised its potential to improve health outcomes for women worldwide.
