15:45 Panel: Investing in Diversity to Drive Health Equity

The impact of healthcare inequality has never been more evident that during pandemic.

While the importance of diverse teams and inclusion within companies is well documented as a “must have” for life science companies and investors alike, the real potential for social good is perhaps lagging.

This session looks at how investment, data & people broadly can be used to drive company diversity and expanded product scope with the goal of reducing healthcare inequality, for both social and commercial good.
