The market for femtech, which focuses on women's health, is expected to experience significant growth and has attracted the attention of major investors.
Among the top ten most active global investors in this sector, Vienna-based venture capital firm Calm/Storm is the only European entity, according to Pitchbook.
Calm/Storm has invested in twelve femtech companies and has hinted at additional undisclosed projects, indicating its increasing focus on this area since its establishment four and a half years ago.
The founder of Calm/Storm, Lucanus Polagnoli, acknowledges that femtech was not initially part of the firm's plan but has become increasingly important.
The firm is now preparing to launch a second fund, with the goal of matching the 20 million euros available in its first fund, with support from founders, business angels, and family offices.
A report from Calm/Storm predicts a forthcoming "femtech revolution," suggesting a promising future for investments in women's health services.
