About Willow: Founded in 2014, Willow forever changed the way women pump with the world’s first quiet all-in-one, in-bra wearable breast pump. The Willow Wearable Breast Pump ditches the long tubes, cords, dangling bottles and loud sucking sounds so moms can pump wherever their day takes them. The company is experiencing strong growth and is poised for continued success in the booming Femtech space, which has a market potential of $50 billion by 2025, according to Frost & Sullivan. Willow’s revenue grew 140% year-over-year from 2018 to 2019, and this year it will grow by nearly 50%. Willow’s user base of pumping moms grew by 120% from 2018 to 2019. Perhaps most importantly, Willow is making moms’ lives easier in a time where flexibility and the need to multi-task is even more important. Willow saves moms up to 240 hours per year in time that would have otherwise been spent tethered to the wall pumping.
