Women’s health product development & consulting
Our work in women's health R&D
"Addressing the gaps in women’s health requires targeted innovation across the care continuum. We’ve worked with clients to disrupt the status quo in areas such as HPV, IVF, incontinence, and uterine fibroids. We apply deep empathy to women’s health design, underpinned by our heritage in science and technology development, to help our clients achieve competitive differentiation in this growing market.”
Meet Erica Kantor, Head of Women’s Health
Let's meet to discuss women's health innovation
Women's health R&D focus areas and expertise:
As digital tools improve the accuracy and interoperability of diagnostics we support clients’ development of at-home tests surrounding female oncology, fertility, and sexual health.
We help clients leverage innovations in robotics and surgical visualisation, facilitating more effective surgery with improved outcomes for women.
Advances in AI and bioinformatics are reducing lab variability and improving success rates for prospective parents. We empower clients to harness these tools effectively.
We hold deep expertise in medical imaging, data science, and value-based care models which enable earlier detection and more accurate treatment of breast cancer.
Our work with disruptive start-ups addresses the unique and diverse needs of the female population, catalysing societal awareness and VC investment.

Trends in women's health R&D:
Women’s health innovation is rich with opportunity: existing players who are expanding portfolios throughout the care continuum and across women’s lifespans to provide holistic care; women’s health investment and research that is extending beyond reproductive matters to address general conditions that affect women differently or disproportionately; and women’s health start-ups are beginning to scale and looking to expand. This includes making the leap from consumer to medical offerings to provide fully integrated, patient-centric, clinically validated solutions for women.
