This initiative, launched in July 2023, is dedicated to tackling the monumental growth gap in women's health, which currently stands at a staggering $17 trillion.

Frost & Sullivan Launches the EmpowerHer Program to Bridge the Growth Gap in Women's Health

The growth gap in women's health is a multifaceted challenge rooted in three critical areas: a lack of comprehensive clinical research, limited access to healthcare, and insufficient funding for women's health technology. This formidable gap poses a significant obstacle to delivering effective care to women worldwide.
