Women InnoVenture: Empowering Women in HealthTech

The Women InnoVenture is a five-week international initiative designed to empower women, particularly early-stage women entrepreneurs and university students, by providing them with useful workshops that can support them in succeeding in the domains of HealthTech and STEM entrepreneurship. The program aims to develop communication and investment-related skillsets, including the topics of negotiation, translation of research findings into business language and preparation for an investment round.  

Program Objectives:

• Educate and Inspire: To educate and inspire young women, especially early-stage women entrepreneurs and university students, about the potential for entrepreneurship in HealthTech and STEM fields.
• Skill Development: To equip participants with practical skills and knowledge, enabling them to translate research into viable business propositions, understand negotiation, and deliver compelling startup pitches.
• Empowerment: To empower women to explore entrepreneurial opportunities, fostering their involvement in these traditionally male-dominated sectors.
• Networking: To create opportunities for participants to connect with like-minded peers and share experiences. Additionally, to learn from successful female entrepreneurs and investors who can provide guidance.

Program Structure:

The program will span five weeks and consist of five online 2-hour workshops and a networking session. Each workshop will build upon the previous one, creating a comprehensive learning experience. (For detailed plan, see Section 2.3)
