In this episode of Behind the Numbers, we discuss gender inequality in investment.
Women continue to be underrepresented in venture capital, particularly at senior levels. The scales are even less balanced for female founders, who received just 2% of venture capital funding in recent years. As the new government puts productivity and growth at the top of its national agenda, how do we get things moving?
Philippa Lamb is joined by entrepreneur and chartered accountant Tanuvi Ethunandan; Helen Burnell, Partner at law firm Shoosmiths; and Suzi Gillespie, Head of Research at the British Private Equity & Venture Capital Association.
