About fermata

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, primarily in Europe and the US, offering solutions to problems and anxieties. However, many of these solutions have not yet reached Japan. With the vision of "until your taboos turn into excitement," fermata has been developing diverse businesses since its establishment in 2019, contributing to the creation of the Femtech market in Asia and Japan. Thanks to our network of over 900 Femtech companies worldwide, partnerships with 9 major international Femtech hubs, and the expertise of our diverse international fermata team in areas such as public health and community development, we have grown to the point where people say, "When it comes to Femtech in Asia, it's fermata."
