What’s holding femtech back? Our Founder Chelsea Ranger shares her perspective.
Chelsea Ranger, founder of WiLD Norway, is featured in a recent Shifter article and podcast discussing the structural barriers holding back the femtech sector. In the conversation, she highlights how unconscious bias and leadership dynamics continue to influence which innovations are prioritized, funded, and scaled.
While femtech represents a significant and growing market, Chelsea emphasizes that progress depends on more than technological advancement. It requires a shift in how decisions are made and who is represented in those decisions.
Addressing these challenges is a shared responsibility across the ecosystem, from founders and investors to policymakers and industry leaders.
Chelsea will continue this conversation on stage in Bergen this week, where she is speaking at the Femtech event, bringing these questions directly into dialogue with the ecosystem.
