DNA of a Rule Breaker | Cindy Eckert | TEDxRaleigh

Serial pharma founder/CEO/thought leader, Cindy Eckert, challenges the traditional approach to 'getting ahead' and confronts the myths and truths that hold both men and women back. The New York Times called her pharmaceutical product the drug of a generation and Fortune called her a tireless force of nature. Associates of hers call her unapologetically pink. Cindy Eckert is a highly regarded women's health advocate and serial entrepreneur. In the last 10 years, she has started and sold two businesses for more than $1.5B. She co-founded and served as CEO for Sprout Pharmaceuticals where, in 2015, the company delivered the first FDA-approved drug for low sexual desire in women -- dubbed “female Viagra” by the media. She started Sprout only one day after selling another that she also co-founded, Slate Pharmaceuticals, which redefined long lasting testosterone treatment for men. Cindy has made waves, and made her own success, in the field of sexual medicine and creating mission driven companies. Cindy has been covered by: The New York Times, Associated Press, Financial Times, Vanity Fair, Bloomberg, CNBC, CBS, Fox, Yahoo and the cover feature of Entrepreneur Magazine. Cindy has a mission to launch and build other women led or focused businesses. In 2016, she opened The Pink Ceiling -- a cross between a VC firm, a ‘pinkubator’ and a consulting enterprise -- where she is CEO. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
