Menstrual health and gynaecological conditions Millions of girls and women globally struggle with their menstrual health and gynaecological conditions in terms of prolonged symptoms and late diagnoses. Endometriosis alone costs the UK economy £8.2 billion a year in treatment, loss of work and healthcare costs. This is an important aspect of women's health this show will highlight and gather innovative solutions for. |

Female-specific and gynaecological cancers Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed globally and whilst gynaecological cancers affect a smaller proportion of women, its effects are just as devastating. For many, cancer is detected at a very late stage and so this show aims to showcase the technologies currently being manufactured to detect, diagnose and treat this illness earlier and at a faster rate. |
| 11:25 - 13:00 |
Fertility care Infertility affects an estimated 186 million individuals globally and many more struggle to conceive. Many technologies are now in place and constantly being developed to aid individuals and couples on their journey. |

Maternal health Despite advances in healthcare, some people do not survive pregnancy and childbirth. The Women's Health Tech Show will give attendees access to important innovations available for individuals experiencing pregnancy and life-threatening conditions, like pre-eclampsia. |
|
| 15:15 - 16:00 |
Pelvic floor health We explore the various innovative solutions for women struggling with pelvic floor weakness or disorders, affecting over 50% of women in the UK. |
|
| 16:00 - 17:00 |
Menopause Research by the UK's leading menopause support app, Balance, showed that a lack of menopausal awareness and support for women in the workforce is costing the UK economy £10 billion due to affected individuals taking time off and leaving the workforce. Menopause is a three-staged process affecting millions of women and its symptoms are often misunderstood resulting in underdiagnosis. |

This is one of the UK’s leading conferences showcasing the innovative technology being developed for women’s health care.
Highlighting the potential of technologies to fast-track solutions to women’s health problems is a key ambition to help reduce the unequal burden of disease women experience.
In the UK, women’s health technology is a rapidly growing sector within healthcare. According to NHS Digital’s 2022 report, greater total costs of patient level activity were related to women than men. Women spend a significantly longer proportion of their lives in ill health and disability when compared with men. Despite this, women are still underrepresented in medical research. Like many other female-specific conditions, research has shown that a lack of menopausal awareness and support for women in the workforce is costing the UK economy £10 billion annually due to affected individuals taking time off and leaving the workforce.
The government’s first Women’s Health Strategy for England was released last year to highlight and reverse the health inequalities and unequal disease burden women experience. Technology plays a key role in fast-tracking the improvement of women’s health outcomes. This show will champion and educate attendees on the technological innovation in women’s health, inspiring more creation and advances in the field.
The Women’s Health Tech Show is for all women’s healthcare workers in the UK, innovators and forward-thinking women’s health sector leaders from the healthcare sector, science, technology, and academia; everyone who is passionately committed to improving women’s health.
