Mills & Reeve Joins FemTick as Founding Partner

Mills & Reeve has become a founding partner of FemTick, a new accreditation scheme developed by CensHERship to recognise organisations that build financial and commercial infrastructure for women's health companies. Founding partners will help shape the accreditation as it expands.

Why it matters

The accreditation aims to give founders, investors and partners visibility into specialist service providers in women's health, a sector CensHERship describes as affected by structural bias. For readers following women's health, it signals a push to professionalise the commercial support behind the sector.

The global women's health market is projected to reach $600 billion by 2030, according to a PwC estimate cited in the announcement. The source does not give a current baseline or indicate how the projection was calculated.
