Introduction to the Femtech Fes! Executive Committee

Sep 27, 2023

Up until now, this event has been hosted solely by fermata Inc. However, to strengthen governance and structurally ensure fairness in this market, we have decided to operate the event as an executive committee. The members comprising the executive committee are as follows:

<Medical Femtech Consortium>

▼Overview

Established primarily by obstetricians and gynecologists with the aim of promoting appropriate femtech. Diverse members, including businesses, doctors, midwives, lawyers, and administrative scriveners who support the initiative, participate. We accompany the "Parliamentary League for Femtech Promotion" and operate the "Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Act Working Group," which is a forum for discussions with the government.

Comments on joining the Executive Committee

We believe that medically appropriate evaluations are necessary for consumers to use femtech products and services safely and securely. Based on this idea, we have been making policy recommendations through dialogue with politics and administration regarding the legal positioning and evaluation methods of femtech products. With "Femtech Fes!" as an opportunity, we hope to leverage the strengths of each executive committee member to energize the femtech industry and contribute to the creation of a healthy market. (Reona Matsumoto, Representative Director, Medical Femtech Consortium)

 Comments on joining the Executive Committee

This event began in 2019 in a small venue in Shibuya. With each iteration, the number of trusted partners has grown, and it has developed into a new market attracting attention in Japan. I am truly delighted to welcome strong allies to the executive committee for this year's Femtech Fes!, who will help support the growth of the femtech market. Please look forward to the new Femtech Fes! (Amina Sugimoto, CEO, fermata Inc.)
