Empowering Women's Wellbeing and Work: Initiatives in Hiroshima

Women's Wellbeing and Work: Initiatives in Hiroshima

In today's society, many women face challenges and constraints in continuing their careers, which reflects an underutilization of our collective societal potential. Femtech, or female technology, presents a solution to this, offering support in balancing work with critical life events such as pregnancy and childbirth, while addressing unique health issues women face.

An upcoming event in Hiroshima will delve into these topics by highlighting the challenges and realities faced by local businesses and municipalities, showcasing practical insights and new awareness through workshops and panel discussions. Attendees will also have the opportunity to experience femtech products first-hand, making this event a must-attend for those interested in these advancements.
