20 %
Our goal is for women to hold at least 20% of senior positions in private equity
Fewer women than men enter private equity and of those, only a small proportion progress to take on leadership roles. We believe that increased participation by women, especially in leadership positions, will lead to improved and sustained investment performance.
An international
network of sponsors
With over 120 sponsor firms (both GPs and LPs) across Europe, we have an international network of sponsors — enabling us to take a global view of industry change alongside a local view of targeted support.
In addition, our supporters, including those that provide financial and pro-bono support, as well as numerous industry organisations we align with provide valuable resource, endorsement and advocacy.
