Building a diverse leadership team and board
Friday 30th April 11am BST
In the recently released Deerfield Report an analysis of 140 venture-backed health and life science companies found that nearly half had no female board members. And, of the six who managed to achieve 50% women on their board, all but one had a female CEO. For all the talk about the importance of diversity at the most senior levels, in reality there are still too many very real barriers to achieving it. This webinar addresses the problem head-on, including some tangible changes that might be implemented to build a diverse leadership team and board, including:
Priya Mande, COO, PsiOxus Therapeutics
Keren Leshem, CEO, OCON Healthcare
Sabine Dandiguian, Managing Partner, Jeito Life
Houman Ashrafian, Managing Partner, SV Health Investors
Moderator: Malcolm Silander, Co-Founder, Precision Biosearch
