Ms Fionnuala Healy:

It is important to get increased gender diversity on boards. Research has shown that, when there is a general diverse board, an organisation is more capital efficient to the tune of 30%, achieves 35% higher return on investment and generates 12% higher revenue. It is all about promoting diversity on boards and getting support networks for women in entrepreneurship. Startup Ireland is advocating for getting more women invovled in entrepreneurship.
