What is it like running a biotech company as a woman? As an executive who happens to be a woman, are you treated differently by other executives who are men? Do you feel a sense of responsibility to your employees who are women? How do you create a workplace that supports women and other underrepresented groups? When you pitch to investors, how often do you see women on the other side of the pitch table? This panel will explore these questions and more and will also review the state of gender diversity in the biotech industry. Attendees will hear from three women who hold positions of leadership in the industry regarding how they achieved the success, challenges associated with ascending to a leadership position in biotech, and what advice they have for women who are starting their careers in biotech.
