Femtech founders build for fertility, pregnancy, menstrual health, menopause, pelvic and sexual health, and they need investors who understand the market, clinicians who will trust the evidence and partners who can reach patients. These are the ten best femtech events of 2027, from London, Stockholm, Gothenburg and Cologne to New York, San Diego, Boston and Montréal, plus one online summit.
We picked events built around women's health, with Europe first when quality is equal. Half of them are founder and investor summits; the others are the medical congresses and trade fairs where femtech founders meet clinicians and buyers. We checked every date on the organiser's own website and mark each one as Confirmed (date on the official site), Announced (reliable second source only) or Expected (based on past editions only). All ten below are Confirmed for 2027. For women founders in every sector, see our female entrepreneurship events of 2027.

How to choose a femtech event
- Investors or clinicians? Women's Health Week, WHIS and Power of X are built for deals; ESHRE, EMAS and FIGO are where you meet the clinicians who will use or recommend your product.
- Match your condition. Fertility tech belongs at ESHRE, menopause at EMAS, maternal health at FIGO, and devices and diagnostics at HERS.
- Bring your evidence. At the medical congresses, a clinical study or pilot data opens more doors than a pitch deck.
- Consumer products need buyers. FIBO Women's Health is the place for cycle, menopause and pelvic-health products sold through gyms and wellness channels.
- Join the waiting lists. Women's Health Week USA and Europe have not published 2027 prices yet; the waiting list is the way to hear first.
