Together, we explored some groundbreaking innovations in women's health tech, such as smart bras designed for heart monitoring and devices aimed at preventing birth injuries.


Dr. Gerner shared the challenges that femtech continues to face, including biases in funding and the persistent societal taboos surrounding women's health. Our conversation highlighted just how critical this technology is for advancing women’s health, while also emphasizing the need for increased visibility and investment in this space.


Marina Gerner is an award-winning journalist who has written about finance, tech and culture for publications including The Economist, Financial Times, Wired, The Times, Wall Street Journal, and more. Hailed as "a Renaissance woman of the modern age," she brings a unique interdisciplinary perspective. Marina is also an Adjunct Professor at NYU Stern School of Business and holds a PhD from the London School of Economics. Born in Kyiv, she has lived in Frankfurt, New York, and London.
