Throughout history, after a global crisis, a new era of renaissance takes fold. As the world struggles to mount an economic recovery from a once-in-a-century pandemic, we are experiencing one of the biggest changes to ever play out. History books will be written about this time.

As we look to the future, it is refreshing to see how design can tap into technological advances with inspiring potential to make a positive impact in all aspects of daily life for women.

From Smart Nursery which utilizes IoT and AI to solve the problem of childcare desert and creates new social infrastructure to OUI, an innovative non-hormonal contraceptive that works by reinfor- cing women’s natural pregnancy barrier; designers are addressing challenges that affect over half of our population and generating an incredible market opportunity.

The design industry is poised to bring women’s well-being into the 21st century.
