Rachel Wong
Greetings, fellow FemTech enthusiasts! My name is Rachel, and I am a first year Molecular Bioengineering student running for the position of Events Officer in the FemTech society. I recently attended the FemTech conference and was deeply impressed by how the industry targeted at improving women's health. Unfortunately, it is still a booming industry and hasn’t caught much people’s attention. As a passionate advocate for women’s rights, I am provoked to use my skills and experience to deliver the idea of FemTech with a wide range of interesting activities.
Aim & Vision:
My aim is to create a supportive and inclusive community for members to connect, learn and grow in the FemTech industry. To achieve this, I will focus on:
- Curate monthly events, including panel discussions and workshops that showcase the achievements of FemTech companies
- Collaborate with industry leaders to provide valuable internship opportunities and mentorship programs
- Increase the visibility and representation of FemTech Society by collaborating with other societies
- Foster a sense of belonging and camaraderie among our members
Events Suggestions:
- Weekly ‘FemTech Founders’ Workshop: Startup Building /Project Developing Platform
- Monthly Panel Discussions: Speakers sharing experiences and insight
- ‘FemTech Matchmaking’ Mentorship Program: Connecting professionals with aspiring members
- Trips to FemTech companies and conferences
- 'FemTech for Good' hackathon: Develop innovative solutions for gender-related challenges
- Annual Flagship Conference
As your Events Officer, I am committed to working with the rest of the committee to ensure that our events are well-organised, informative, and enjoyable for all members. Thank you for your support!
