Happy Women's Day
Yesterday we celebrated our day - a woman here writing - so we could not avoid from sharing some interesting statistics about the impact of women in the workforce.
Did you know that only 2.3% of venture capital is going to women-led companies? And that only 11% of energy startup founders identify as women?
And yet, research has shown many times that firms with more women in senior positions are more profitable, more socially responsible, and provide better customer experiences.
And although women and girls experience the greatest impacts of climate change, they are best placed to surface the solutions. So today, and everyday, we celebrate the incredibly resilient girls and women we support in the schools. It is also a day to focus on the inequities and injustices that exist across the sector.
