Welcome to FemmeHealth Ventures
Where wealth-building meets purposeful impact, and women’s health investments take centre stage.
Meet Maryann
I’m Maryann, an investment advisor with over two decades of experience in the world of finance and wealth management. I’m passionately driven to close the funding gap in women’s health and longevity—one deal at a time.
I created this publication to help people build wealth and turn it into meaningful impact. Because investing, in my book, isn’t just about returns—it’s about transforming communities, empowering innovators, and advancing the causes we care about most. And for me, that cause is women’s health.
If you’re curious about how I went from advising on over $700 million USD in assets to championing female founders in healthcare, scroll on down. Spoiler alert: there were a few “aha!” moments along the way that convinced me women’s health isn’t just a niche—it’s the future.
What FemmeHealth Ventures Is All About
Here at FemmeHealth Ventures, I share insights, opportunities, and stories about the intersection of wealth, investing, and impact—with a special focus on femtech and women’s health technology. And while I’m partial to elevating women-led innovation, everyone is welcome. After all, better health outcomes for women benefit everyone, full stop.
We’re talking about a sector that’s been overlooked for far too long, even though women make 80% of healthcare decisions and control 85% of consumer spending. The potential here is massive—both financially and socially. So, if you’re ready to discover how your money can do more than just grow—it can ignite change—you’re in exactly the right place.
Here’s What You’ll Find
At least once a week, I’ll share fresh takes on:
Minding the Gap in Women’s Health: Where traditional investors miss the mark and where you can step in.
Spotlight on Femtech Startups: The only newsletter (ahem, that I’m aware of) analysing femtech through an investor’s lens.
Angel Investing Tips 101: Understand the fundamentals, learn how to spot promising early-stage opportunities, and mitigate risks.
Purposeful Profit: Yes, you can align your investments with your values and still aim for competitive returns.
Success Stories from Founders: Meet the women who turned personal pain points into groundbreaking ventures.
Market Trends & Forecasts: Because you deserve the data and insights behind this booming sector.
No matter the topic, you can expect:
Actionable Ideas: So you can jump from “that’s interesting” to “here’s my next step.”
Evidence-Based Insight: Because we’re talking about money, and you deserve real data, not guesswork.
Entertaining Anecdotes: I genuinely enjoy telling stories (and throwing in the occasional pun). Serious industry? Absolutely. Serious tone? Not 24/7.
Encouragement: Consider me your personal finance cheerleader with a healthcare twist.

How I Got Here (For the Curious Souls)
For years, I saw that women’s health was often an afterthought in investment conversations—this, despite the fact that women control the bulk of healthcare decisions and spending. I noticed a significant gap: visionary female founders tackling big healthcare problems but struggling to raise capital to scale their solutions.
I felt a nudge. Why wasn’t more attention on women’s health? If the market is so big, and the innovations so necessary, where was the capital?
That’s when I decided to create a space dedicated to spotlighting these pioneers, educating potential investors, and rallying a community that believes in the power of purposeful profit. Enter FemmeHealth Ventures.
Every conversation I have with a driven entrepreneur or curious investor reaffirms why this matters. New health technologies can change lives—sometimes literally saving them—and when we invest in women’s health, we’re investing in a more equitable, thriving future for everyone.
