SHANGHAI SUMMIT 2026

Cross-Border Capital & Partnerships in Women's Health

22 - 25 June 2026 · Shanghai, China

VIEW PROGRAMME
FEMTECH ACROSS BORDERS

FemTech Across Borders (FAB) is a global consortium connecting women's health ecosystems across borders. It is founded on a simple belief: the future of women's health innovation will be shaped not by one market alone, but through deeper exchange between ecosystems, institutions, and operators around the world.

As FAB's China representative, FemTech Weekend is bringing this vision to life in Shanghai through a curated programme designed to foster more meaningful cross-border dialogue.

The programme is organised in strategic partnership with Bayer Women's Healthcare and PwC, and co-convened with the Shanghai Government.
