Lindsay Davis, Jingjin Liu - Femtech

This episode unpacks the US$1 billion industry known as Femtech, which refers to innovations designed to support, improve and promote women’s health. We were privileged to be able to speak with two established members from the Femtech space who shared with us the developments in Singapore and the region, the challenges faced, and what the future holds for femtech: * Lindsay Davis [https://www.bing.com/search?q=lindsay+davis+linkedin&qs=n&form=QBRE&sp=-1&pq=lindsay+davis+linkedin&sc=2-22&sk=&cvid=D993B2FA49A24D75B1C51E68DAA7138D], Co-founder of Femtech Association of Asia [https://www.instagram.com/femtechasia/], Asia’s first and only industry network for professionals making a positive impact on women’s health through technology, and * Jingjin Liu [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jingjin-liu/], CEO & Founder of Zazazu [https://zazazu.vip/], Asia’s first sexual well-being hub in Southeast Asia that synchronises education, consultation and product curation to empower women to own their sexuality.

episode Dr Jade Kua - DARE App artwork

Dr Jade Kua - DARE App

Today's guest is Dr Jade Kua. An accomplished paediatric emergency specialist, Dr Jade is also the Director of the DARE programme which stands for ‘Dispatcher-Assisted first responder’. The program seeks to teach anyone to do hands-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and use automated external defibrillators in case of emergencies. In addition to the launch of its nationwide campaign, DARE also launched an app with much success – there were positive signs in the uptake and interest internationally as well. Five years after the launch of the DARE app, Dr Jade realised that the needs of the masses have changed. Much of the resources offered in the app could also be easily accessible from other platforms, which prompted her and her team to make the decision to decommission the app five years after its successful launch. Today, Dr Jade shares with us the process of seeing the app go from cradle to grave. Learn about what it takes to pivot an app, and how TechforGood project teams need to be able to have honest conversations on the future of their tech products.

episode Jeremy Au - Social Impact Investor artwork

Jeremy Au - Social Impact Investor

Today's guest is Jeremy Au [https://www.jeremyau.com/], a multi-hyphenate, but someone who squarely believes in investing in people and great ideas. Besides being an angel investor in multiple businesses, Jeremy also spearheads Monk Hill Venture’s [https://www.monkshill.com/] key initiatives from venture scouts to thought leadership. Jeremy has a number of social enterprises and initiatives under his belt. For one, he co-founded CozyKin [https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/cozykin], an early education marketplace, and led the startup as CEO from 0 to Series A to sale. He also co-founded and bootstrapped Conjunct Consulting [https://conjunctconsulting.org/], an impact consulting platform that we have actually talked about in our previous episodes with Jia Chuan. In this interview, we hear about Jeremy’s past projects, talk about his views on bringing his two worlds of investing and social impact together, and discuss how TechforGood projects should think differently about sustainability and financing.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
