Regional Cross-Sector Collaboration

This mini-report by FemTech Association Asia offers a snapshot of a few of the many ecosystem partnerships across the region, highlighting how different types of collaborations can raise the profile of femtech startups, support the industry and amplify women's health.


Whether through research contributions, event sponsorship, education campaigns, exclusive programmes or other initiatives, these partnerships are addressing critical health gaps and supporting the femtech as a vital and investable sector.


By listing a diversity of partnerships across the region and various industries, we aim to showcase the breadth of opportunities and inspire new crosssector alliances that can drive long-term, inclusive growth in Asia’s women’s health landscape.
