Where capital, innovation, clinical leadership, and policy converge
The Mid-Atlantic's highest-value women's health conference brings investors, clinicians, founders, and policymakers into one room — now in its second year.
"No other conference with such a unique group of stakeholders."
2025 WHN attendee
Health systems want to pilot new solutions but don't know which ones are worth the risk. Investors have the capital but lack the insight into what clinical leaders actually need. Policymakers sit outside all of it.
In 2024, women's health received just 2.3% of healthcare venture capital — despite women controlling 60% of healthcare spending and 80% of household healthcare decisions.
Women's Health Nexus 2026 brings these groups into one room for a day — not to hear keynotes, but to solve concrete problems. Four clinical tracks. A pitch competition with vetted finalists. Structured introductions, not a cocktail mixer. Policy recommendations that go somewhere.
