Animal Health Angels are starting off as they mean to go on by fostering gender diversity and inclusion within the entrepreneurial ecosystem. Animal Health Angels has delighted to announce its commitment to the U.K.’s Investing in Women Code and have been confirmed as signatories. This commitment reflects the group’s dedication to supporting female founders and entrepreneurs, promoting equality and driving positive change in the world of start-ups.

The Investing in Women Code, launched in 2019, is a ground-breaking initiative aimed at increasing the representation of women in the investment landscape. The code encourages financial institutions, venture, capital firms and angel investment groups to commit to meaningful actions that enhance transparency, support women lead businesses and help close the gender funding gap.

With this pledge, the Animal Health Angels joined the ranks of forward-thinking organisations striving to create more inclusive investment environment. By endorsing the code, the group has taken on the responsibilities of setting diversity focused objectives and measuring the progress annually. This transparency not only holds investment community accountable but also ensures a continuous push towards achieving gender parity.

All of the founders in the organisation are committed to this. We believe that diversity fuels innovation and it is crucial to provide equal opportunities to all aspiring entrepreneurs. In committing to this code, we aim to be an active role in bridging the funding gap that women led businesses often face and for the group to be leaders in this in the Animal Health Industry.
