Women in Life Sciences

Join us at the Women in Life Sciences event on September 17, 2025, at Ilmac Basel, where we address the Gender Health Gap and the importance of female leadership in the life sciences sector. This exclusive program fosters insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and actionable strategies for driving diversity, equity, and innovation in healthcare and beyond.

Women play a pivotal role in shaping the future of life sciences, yet they continue to face significant barriers, including the Gender Health Gap and a lack of representation in leadership positions. These challenges not only limit professional growth but also have profound implications for healthcare innovation, research, and patient outcomes. Addressing these systemic issues requires a commitment to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion at all levels of the industry.

Let’s come together to support women in leadership!
