As the wellness market continues to grow at a steady pace, how are consumers spending when it comes to products and services that enhance their health, fitness, nutrition, appearance, sleep, and mindfulness? And how can brands better reach these consumers? According to McKinsey & Company, “a rise in both consumer interest and purchasing power presents tremendous opportunities for companies, particularly as spending on personal wellness rebounds after stagnating or even declining during the COVID-19 crisis.” In addition to this growing interest in well-being, a greater focus is being placed on women’s health, creating opportunities to tap into a market primed for disruption. eMarketer states that “women’s health is still in its early stages of digital health transformation and has a ton of expansion potential. We see more employers and payers tap femtech startups to move the needle on comprehensive, equitable care.” The sparked interest in wellness paired with a digital transformation of women’s health is incredibly exciting for consumers and brands alike.
