What if naming something was the first step to making it investable?
In this episode of Blindspot Capital, I sit down with Ida Tin, entrepreneur, systems thinker, and the woman who coined the term FemTech. She’s also the co-founder and former CEO of Clue, one of the most widely used women’s health apps in the world, with over 10 million active users in 190+ countries.
But this conversation isn’t just about legacy. It’s about language, legitimacy, and the long game of funding women’s health.
We cover:
🟣 How FemTech started as a bridge to help male investors care
🟣 What naming a category unlocked and unintentionally limited
🟣 The persistent bias that keeps women’s health boxed in as “niche”
🟣 The mindset shift from founder to systems-change leader
🟣 Why we believe women’s health is infrastructure
🟣 What she’s building next with Femtech Assembly and why she’s doing it differently
