Webinar Program Description:
Diversity and
inclusion in the life sciences industry is critical, not only to gain insights
and foster innovative ideas from people of different backgrounds, but also to
address the needs of the diverse populations that life sciences companies
serve. However, a 2019 survey of biotech companies indicates that many
companies in this space still have a long way to go in their representation of
diverse populations at the executive and board levels and in implementing D
& I programs at their organizations. Incorporating D&I efforts
into all aspects of a company's operations, giving everyone a chance to thrive
and advance, not only has been shown to lead to greater business growth and
successes, it provides a richer experience for all stakeholders and is just the
right thing to do.
Come hear three diverse women legal
leaders from Boston Scientific, Medtronic, and Nestlé Health Science discuss
why D&I is particularly important in the life sciences industry – the unique
challenges, concerns and opportunities – and how their companies are working to
move the needle forward both internally and through their engagement with
external partners.
