Why wawa fertility?

At wawa fertility our mission is to help more people get a chance to start a family. At wawa we are empowering patients going through fertility treatment - supporting them from diagnostics to birth.

We are working with consumer facing technologies as well as large quantities of complex data providing transformative insights on fertility treatments, lifestyle and outcomes to increase success rates and patient experience. Our first product is an intelligent fertility assistant empowering women and couples all the way from diagnostics to birth.

We believe that starting a family is a basic fundamental right. However, for many people it is not that easy. Infertility is the most widespread chronic disease for people between 20-45. Unfortunately, the current fertility treatment model is broken. There has been little focus on patient experience, no holistic view on patients and the success rates for assisted reproductive technology (ART) are only between 20% and 30%. 

wawa fertility are working to create the future of fertility treatment where patients are an active part of their own treatment and data is used for improving patient experience and treatment outcome. 

We are looking for people to join us in building a future where fertility treatment is accessible to everyone.

  • wawa fertility is the leading fertility platform in the nordics. Already now we have 30.000 users as a part of our community. 

  • We are very proud to be selected by European VCs as one of the 15 health tech startups to watch in Europe


wawa are driven by the mission to transform fertility treatment. Join our team if

  • You want to give more people a chance to start a family

  • You love solving complex problems with data and technology

  • You want to work with something that will impact the lives of hundreds of millions of people


Finding the right people to build wawa fertility’s success has been crucial from the beginning. These are the qualities we look for:

  • Passion: We are looking for people who are driven to achieve something against all odds and enjoy it at the same time. 

  • Creativity: Do you connect the dots in an original way seeing things that others cannot see? We need that kind of thinking to change a whole sector. 

  • Impact driven: You are mission driven and not afraid to cross boundaries. Relentlessly focusing on going the extra mile to solve the problem that you are working with.

  • Proactive: You make things happen, instead of waiting for them to happen to you.
