I will go back to the point I made earlier about male and female participation. Some of the big lessons of the crash were groupthink, risk and trying to balance male-female participation to ensure a different approach to risk. Risk, and research appears to be one of the other reasons. Has Enterprise Ireland determined any other reasons more women are coming in and more companies are doing better with better gender balance on their boards?
