Did you know that in closing the women's health gap by JUST focusing on premenstrual syndrome (PMS) could have a $2.3B impact on Canada's GDP? McKinsey Health Institute shared with at the Femtech Canada #FemtechCanadaForum in Montreal on Tuesday! There were many more incredible nuggets of information and inspiration shared, thanks to Rachel Bartholomew, Andrea Guest, Alex Muggah and the entire Innovation Factory and Femtech Canada team. We heard from thought leaders such as Liza Vityuk, Swati Matta, Jackie Hanson, Sara Jonsdottir, Danika Kelly, Krista Hogan, PMP, Parambir Bhangu, Hilary Kilgour, Katheleen Eva and many more making strides forward in women's health in Canada! Let's invest in women's health! It just makes economic sense.
And thanks to you Dallas Barnes for the countless times you have added your voice to raise the volume on these issues.
This is a powerful reminder of the economic value of addressing gender health gaps! Focusing on women's health issues, like PMS, not only improves quality of life but can also have a significant economic impact. However, it's important to note that the gender health gap extends beyond PMS, affecting many areas such as reproductive health, mental health, and chronic conditions. Closing these gaps will drive even greater social and economic benefits.
Such a powerful message! ?? Investing in women’s health, makes both economic and social sense. Thanks to everyone for championing this important cause! ???
Wonderful to have you with us, Dallas! It was great to hear your updates on Reya Health and all your progress :)
