OUR MISSION
We seek to address the gender gap in innovation in the UK by promoting equality and diversity by the elimination of discrimination on the grounds of sex.
Across the global innovation industry, we believe that the UK and London is unique for its global reach and specialism in driving innovation across multiple markets and cultures. We strive to equip our beneficiaries with the skills to credibly promote equality and diversity within this global context.
