Biotech Women Striking at the Glass Ceiling

The biotech industry offers unique opportunities for women to advance as executives and entrepreneurs. There are headwinds, however, including unequal access to venture capital. In this episode, we talk with three executives who are part of a wave of women-led companies in biotech. Our guests speak to why women’s leadership matters and the barriers that remain to breaking the glass ceiling. They also tell us about a new networking initiative—the biotech sisterhood—to catalyze women’s success in corporate leadership and mentor the next generation of women executives.

I AM BIO · Anna Rath CEO Vestaron, Grace Colón biotech executive entrepreneur and board member, Erika Smith CEO ReNetX Bio
