Join us for a discussion about how we can grow the supply ecosystem by focusing on justice, equity, diversity and inclusion (J.E.D.I.)

While we’ve seen progress, there is still work that needs to be done to increase the role of women and diverse founders in executive management roles. We’ll review research from McKinsey and discuss what real change could mean for our industry if we support women on matters of finance, R&D, and scaling up and commercializing ingredients.
