Share this event
Join us for a fireside chat with Claire Dixon, co-founder and CEO of Neuraura, whose journey from strategic consultant to deeptech founder is reshaping how we approach chronic, underserved conditions in women's health. In this intimate, lightly moderated conversation, Claire will share candid insights about building a medical device startup focused on conditions like PCOS that have been historically overlooked by the healthcare industry.
With 25+ years of international leadership experience and recognition as one of the Top 200 Trailblazing Leaders in FemTech and Women's Health, Claire brings a unique perspective on navigating the complex intersection of deep technology, clinical validation, and commercialization in medical devices. Her journey with Neuraura offers valuable lessons for any founder working in regulated industries.
This casual Q&A format encourages audience participation, allowing founders to ask specific questions about their own challenges in medtech, femtech, or hardware development. Whether you're building in healthcare or simply interested in how founders can address massive unmet needs, Claire's story offers both inspiration and practical insights.
