Louisa Ghevaert was delighted to attend the launch event of WEALTH: Women In Health in partnership with Covington & Burling LLP on 2 April 2025. Its aim is to build a powerful community of women across the full value chain of health and investment to advance the health, wealth and position of women in the world. WEALTH was created because whilst women drive approximately 80% of major healthcare decisions, women are underrepresented and underserved across the industry and this needs to change. Female founders face significant barriers to innovation, with women-led startups across Europe and the U.S. receiving just 2% of venture capital funding. There is also still little funding available for female reproductive health and unconscious bias which lies deep in society in the home, workplace and at a political level which holds women back.
