*Closed : Global Business Development Representative

About us

While women's lifestyles and work styles are diversifying, issues related to women's unique life stages still tend to be taboo. In this context, a new industry called "Femtech" has emerged, offering solutions for women's concerns and anxieties; many of these solutions have yet to reach Japan. fermata's vision is to "turn taboos into triumphs". Since its founding in 2019, fermata has developed a diverse range of businesses that contribute to the creation of a femtech market in Asia and Japan. We have built partnerships with international femtech hubs and a network of over 2,000 companies worldwide that aim to improve women's quality of life.
Our international team's expertise in public health, community development, and other fields has helped us grow to the point where we are referred to as the leader in this field in Asia.
