IDE Pitch Competition: Spotlight on Innovations for Women's Health

Join us at Innovation for Health 2025

At this year's Innovation for Health event, April 3rd, 2025, we're shining a light on women's health. Despite significant health needs, ventures in this space often face (even tougher) challenges in gaining attention and securing funding due to complex regulatory and reimbursement pathways or specific market-related challenges. But innovation in this space is critical! That is why IDE Group, in collaboration with Innovation for Healthcare, gives groundbreaking solutions the platform they deserve. This session will focus on showcasing the latest advancements in women's health, with a pitch session emphasizing the power of collaboration under the theme of "Joining Forces." It offers a platform for innovators, healthcare professionals, and industry leaders to come together to explore new possibilities and drive forward the future of healthcare.

This session is a key component of the Innovation for Health conference, whether you're looking to present your innovation or discover the latest developments in the field.
