On October 8-9, 2024, Ovum Health had the honor of participating in the prestigious Venture Atlanta Conference at the Woodruff Arts Center. Represented by CEO and Co-Founder Alice Crisci, Ovum Health was selected as one of the early-stage companies to pitch their groundbreaking solution in the fertility and maternal health space. Among stiff competition, Alice delivered a powerful and emotional presentation that not only made her one of the top three finalists in the Early-Stage category but also resonated deeply with the audience, particularly parents who have struggled with infertility.
Ovum Health made the TOP 3 Finalist Early Stage Companies.
“There’s a chronic illness crisis impacting the reproductive age population right now.”
In her pitch, Alice shared Ovum Health’s mission to combine molecular diagnostics, precision medicine, and behavioral science to make motherhood a reality for more women, while also supporting men in the journey. “There’s a chronic illness crisis impacting the reproductive age population right now,” Alice explained, highlighting the link between infertility and conditions like gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and even maternal death. Ovum's innovative approach tackles these conditions head-on, offering couples a chance to conceive naturally and healthily.
Ovum’s comprehensive fertility solution includes personalized treatment plans, 24/7 nutrition coaching, and a team of board-certified medical professionals who provide both live and automated medical support. “We help couples get pregnant and stay pregnant, the way they want to—the old-fashioned way,” Alice emphasized during her pitch, sharing her own personal story of overcoming infertility through five rounds of IVF. “I didn’t get that chance,” she said tearfully, speaking about her son, now 11- years- old, who she described as “expensive” but worth every effort.
One of Ovum Health’s most impressive achievements has been its ability to convert 77% of users from a free nursing consultation to purchasing Ovum’s seven-month fertility program, called the Ovum Method. In addition to helping couples achieve their dream of becoming parents, Ovum has uncovered 1,300 previously undiagnosed conditions, achieving a 60% success rate in getting patients to the stage where pregnancy becomes possible. Already, 13 healthy pregnancies have been achieved through the Ovum Method, and with 40 million insured lives under contract, payers are covering $12,000 per baby.
Alice also shared the exciting news that Ovum Health is currently scaling its digital fertility clinics, which are already operational in 14 locations. “With just 1,000 healthy babies, we could see over $10 million in annual revenue,” Alice said, confidently inviting investors and partners to join their journey.
The audience at Venture Atlanta Conference was clearly captivated, with many individuals approaching Alice afterward to express how touched they were by her story and to encourage her to keep pushing forward. "I literally cry on stage every time I share our story,” Alice shared on LinkedIn after the event, reflecting on her experience. She thanked her team and gave a heartfelt shoutout to her son, who she lovingly called “the very best sidekick of all time.”
Alice also expressed her gratitude for the guidance and support she received leading up to the pitch from coaches Lawrence Guillory and Ryan Collins, as well as the feedback from the judges and audience. “What you are doing is so important! Keep going!” was a message Alice heard repeatedly during the conference, underscoring the importance of Ovum Health’s mission.
As Ovum Health moves forward, the Venture Atlanta Conference has only reinforced their commitment to driving innovation in fertility and maternal health.
