To improve women's lives through smarter technology. In their own words: 'Women shouldn’t have to make do with shoddy design or pink spin-offs when there are self-driving cars in the world.'
It's now being recognised that women's health has been underinvested in for too long. That is changing, with the Femtech market (including fertility apps, maternal health and sexual wellbeing products) projected to be worth $50bn by 2025 (according to research by Frost & Sullivan).
Elvie are one of the only companies out there dedicating world class industrial engineering resources to making great products for women.
The company has made great hires, and the team is full of super experienced people with varied backgrounds (Dyson, Bosch, McKinsey, PepsiCo, Pernod Ricard).
Elvie has explored new markets and now targets other key areas of women's lives, further diversifying its product portfolio and drive growth via geographical expansion.

Autonomy is key to everyone in Elvie. It is a very collaborative process from a concept, to develop as a product and all the way to sell globally. Everyone brings in their own expertise to contribute to every single part of the process.

Autonomy

I work four days a week, but that doesn't affect the way I work with everyone in the company or the work I deliver. During Covid, we all work from home. And to make sure I am not sitting at my living room the whole day, sometimes I start work earlier, sometimes I work later to make sure I have time to exercise! Wellbeing is super important as well.

The projects and challenges set out to us in the product team are often really engaging because nobody has set out to solve them before. Elvie is trailblazing in it's approach to design, empowering and improving women's lives.

I don't think I've ever been surrounded by so many people on top of their game. My colleagues are always there to support and challenge ideas on the table, not for the sake of it, but to get to the best solution we can.

By it's nature Elvie is a very diverse company. I feel honoured to work in such a welcoming environment where there is not just zero judgment, but diversity is actively encouraged and promoted. It's part of our daily routines and there are no questions that cannot be asked in open forums.
