Event Details

Increasingly, research shows that gender inclusion is key to improving business performance and productivity. Companies with higher women's participation, especially at the executive level, improve profitability and introduce new innovations to the market. Integrating a gender lens strategy in the way we invest, operate and manage companies is not only the right thing to do but the smart thing to do.


This session will help members of MPE&VCA refresh and advance their understanding of the importance of adding a gender lens into their investments and provide their portfolio companies with the support and guidance they need to promote gender inclusion among the workforce and value chain.


Members will learn more about:

  • Effectiveness of adding a gender lens at work -101
  • Practical ways to help fund managers make Gender-Smart decisions
  • Setting strategies using gender lens
  • Evaluating Policies and Practices to promote gender equality
  • Tips for supporting the success of women leaders, closing the gender gap


Maud Savary-Mornet, senior advisor to the Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) will lead the session.
