When Tech is a Family Affair
“We’re in this amazing transition period where couples are approaching family life in a “genderless” way – 2/3 of them have the aspiration to co-parent, but only 1/3 are succeeding at it. As I became a new mother, my hands were busy, but my mind could look around. I saw parents struggling everywhere I looked. They were looking for solutions and not finding them – a massive market failure.”
- Parenthood Ventures CEO and Co-Founder Charlotte Michailidis
Dave's three guests are co-founders and leaders of startups pioneering the $1 TRILLION FamTech sector - Charlotte Michailidis, CEO of Parenthood Ventures, Jennifer Nadelson, CEO of Scout, and Brittney Barrett, CMO of Kinside. FamTech is a rapidly growing segment of the Innovation Economy, full of new solutions, products and services that serve the needs of modern families at every stage of life - reinventing wellness, childcare, fertility, aging, activities, education, conception, parenting and many other areas that create stress and difficulty. As the world’s leading companies face an escalating war for talent, perks like foosball tables and kombucha on tap are no longer interesting; offering new kinds of benefits that address their “whole employee’s” 24/7 work, life + family needs is a differentiator.
