In this remote pitch at the InvestHer Summit 2024, Tyljana (Tyljana) Minkowska, architect‑turned‑entrepreneur and founder of Matrixx, shares how her personal experiences of pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood inspired her to redesign gynecological care. She outlines Matrixx’s mission to transform women’s reproductive health through women‑led design, presenting a patented product roadmap that culminates in a launch‑ready digital smart speculum replacement. The device combines multispectral optical imaging, non‑invasive in‑situ biopsy and sample collection, instant image transfer between primary and secondary care, and long‑term patient monitoring, aiming for earlier detection, timely interventions, and improved prognosis. Minkowska concludes by seeking introductions to investors, partners, and stakeholders to support the fundraising round and accelerate the mission.

Hi Dublin, hello everyone at Investor Summit. It's such an honor and huge appreciation for being selected as a finalist at the Investor Summit. It's just greatly appreciated, so thank you so much for this opportunity. My name is Tyljana Minkowska and sadly I cannot be with you today in person in Dublin, which is by the way one of my favorite places in the world. I love this city with all my heart, but the reason for that is quite justified because on On Sunday, I welcomed our third daughter to this world. And the reason why I share this with you is because my children and my experiences of womanhood, pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood really inspired me to change the health and care conventions through the power of design. I'm a trained and qualified architect, but my passion for humanizing the most profound and personal experiences in a woman's life, such as the time when she gives birth to a new human being, inspired me to find ways to really change the status quo and the system, which can often equally make and break our bodies. And I'm the founder of Matrixx, and really Matrixx is transforming gynecological protocols through women-led design innovation. We have developed a compelling product roadmap of patented gynecological devices, which are capable of revolutionizing women's reproductive health and care. Our launch offering is a digital smart speculum replacement device with multispectral optical capability, which can facilitate long-term follow-ups and instant imaging transfer between primary and secondary care providers. And it allows clinicians to perform in situ biopsies and sample collections that are non-invasive and patient-centered, enabling early detection of gynecological conditions. timely interventions, and improve long-term prognosis. The Matrix mission really is to transform gynecological care through innovative technology, offering vastly improved access to diagnostics, tailored treatment planning, and ongoing patient monitoring through novel hardware design and a proprietary software solution. I am very excited to be a part of Investor Summit, even though from afar, from London, the neighboring capital at the bottom of of the island archipelago, but I'm embarking the fundraising journey and I would really love to be introduced to potential partners or any stakeholders in the space who can potentially help me bring this mission forward. And yeah, I would love to get connected. So please let me know if you want to have a chat. I'm very approachable and accessible. So thank you very much. Thank you. and, uh, hope to see you very soon in person. Bye-bye. Bye.
