Hear from industry leaders as they take stock of the state of gender diversity in the private equity/ venture capital ecosystem, share the progress made, and deliberate upon the way forward to building gender balance in investing and entrepreneurism.
“The Alicorn Leadership Summit is a special series of events celebrating the power of gender diversity and marking Winpe's first anniversary.”
“Gender diversity to me means sustainability. Having a diverse leadership team is a great risk mitigator.”
“The biggest challenge for gender diversity is in implementation. A lot of firms and institutions want to do the right thing and have the policies in place, but just do not have the resources to track gender diversity. So if you equip them with resources you will see a lot more happening than just putting lipstick on the cover and walking away.”
“We are using a scorecard approach for key parameters of diversity. In our due diligence of GPs, we will be bringing this to action.”
“Gender diversity to me is opportunity. It is an extraordinary opportunity for us to benefit from extraordinary talent that we are not utilizing well enough yet.”
“As an industry, we have a problem- it is staring us in the face. Supporting efforts to help solve it and come up with innovative ways to do it is all of our responsibility. I would encourage all of our peers to join Winpe and solve the gender diversity problem as a responsibility to the industry.”
