Why India needs more women role models in PE/VC landscape?

The article discusses the underrepresentation of women in India's investment landscape, particularly in private equity and venture capital. Only 2.4% of founding partners with control of capital in PE/VC firms are women. Traditional gender roles and societal norms contribute to this disparity, leading to biases and limited access to opportunities for women. The article emphasizes the importance of bringing more women into leadership positions to serve as role models and challenge existing biases. Diverse teams and organizations have been shown to outperform homogeneous ones, making gender diversity a business imperative. It is crucial to create an inclusive environment and remove systemic barriers to promote gender diversity.
