Medicon Valley Alliance invites members to kick-off the new Women’s Health network with a workshop on 9 May 2023 in Ørestaden.
Women’s Health has for a long time been under-prioritised. One half of the world’s population is women. Yet remarkably, only 1% of healthcare research and innovation is invested in specific female conditions beyond oncology. Women’s health is so much more than just reproduction. At Medicon Valley Alliance, we want to take the broader approach into account. When we want to put a focus on women’s health, we include both female-specific conditions, whether tied to women’s reproduction or some other facet of women’s biology, AND women’s general health conditions that may affect women differently or disproportionately.
With this new Women’s Health network Medicon Valley Alliance want to gather our members from industry, academia and the public sector who are or want to be engaged in this agenda in order to knowledge-share, create partnership and advocate for more focus, research funding, investments in start-ups, etc on Women’s Health.
Our vision is to make Medicon Valley an attractive hub for research and innovation of drugs, devices and start-ups and talent who want to work in this field.
With your participation in the kick-off workshop, you will be able to give us valuable input to important themes and focus points for the future network meetings. The kick-of meeting will be initiated by a pitch and a couple of inspirational presentations followed by a workshop and concluded with time for networking.
The kick-off is free and open for all Medicon Valley Alliance members.
