Can a market predicted to top $60 billion this decade still be considered a niche? With over half the population born biologically female and women controlling 80% of all consumer spending, and spending 30% more on healthcare than men do, Femtech's time has come.

 In this edition of the podcast, Julie Sandler, Managing Partner at Pioneer Square Labs, joins hosts John Cook/GeekWire and Jordon Voss to detail the explosion of opportunities in Femtech and why it's such an area of interest for this leading investor.  And we discuss the opportunities and challenges for female business leaders despite all of the advances that have been made to improve diversity in recent years.
