Singapore Summit Highlights Women's Health Gaps in APAC

The Growth Asia Summit will be held in Singapore from July 8 to 10 at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre. Please make any bookings on this site.

Women's health and health and nutrition companies' efforts to cater to women's specific hormonal and physiological changes throughout life, along with gaps in policy and emerging scientific research will be one of the primary topics discussed this year.

Dr Novita Puspasari, H&H Scientific Affairs Manager will explore this from the consumer point of view, identifying the gaps and women's health needs in this market which is still an under-served aspect of the healthcare landscape.

She will emphasize the role of women's health in the VMS market which is becoming significant and the importance of awareness and customization of interventions for brands and suppliers to tap this market.

ProActive Health Dr Celia Ning, Kerry's Director, Scientific Affairs, will be addressing the issues facing women, especially hormonal imbalances and fertility issues due to PCOS.

Key Highlights:

• Women’s Health Spotlight: Focus on hormonal health, fertility, and emerging research
• Expert Insights: Industry leaders discuss market opportunities and healthcare gaps
• Innovation Showcase: Discover new start-ups, trends, and networking opportunities

These are two of the biggest challenges for women in today's society and Dr Ning will explain how such growth can be achieved by combining the advice of healthcare professionals with consumer discovery.
