Most healthcare markets were built around male biology. The consequences are now becoming investment opportunities.
Women make the majority of healthcare decisions globally, yet women’s health remains one of the most misunderstood areas in medicine and innovation. This gathering is for people who want to understand what happens when science, demographics, and capital begin to correct that blind spot.
What You’ll Experience.
A curated intellectual environment designed to challenge how you think about healthcare opportunity.
Founders Building at the Edge
Hear directly from women’s health founders building category defining companies.

Live Conversation
A dynamic Q&A focused on what it actually takes to build investable healthcare companies in underserved markets.
Who this is for.
Asset allocators and Investors with an interest in healthcare innovation
Entrepreneurs building healthcare,companies who want a deeper understanding of market positioning and capital dynamics.
Healthcare professionals interested in the structural forces shaping innovation and access.
Intellectually curious people who sense that something important is shifting in healthcare and want to better understand it.
About the Book.
For decades, women’s health was treated as a niche category inside healthcare. This book argues the opposite.
Drawing from over two decades in private wealth and institutional finance, Maryann Selfe explores how structural gaps in medicine created parallel blind spots in capital markets and why those blind spots are now beginning to correct.
The book connects women’s health, demographic change, healthcare innovation and the largest transfer of wealth in modern history into one investment and societal story.
This launch event is the beginning of that conversation.
Your host.
Maryann Selfe
AUTHOR · INVESTMENT STRATEGIST · PRESIDENT, FEMMEHEALTH ALLIANCE
After more than two decades advising private wealth and institutional clients, Maryann began researching why one of the largest healthcare markets in the world remained systematically overlooked by capital.
That work became The Billion Dollar Blindspot.
The framework is in the book.
This evening is where the argument
comes to life.
