‘Think equal, build smart, innovate for change’: this year’s International Women’s Day focuses on how innovation and technology can advance gender parity and the empowerment of women at a global scale, and we at Exago know first-hand just how important women are to help drive innovation in the workplace.

Studies have consistently shown that women improve innovation performance in companies. Teams overseen by female leaders are also more likely to experience ‘innovation intensity’, bring long-term value creation to their companies and make them more profitable.

Aligned with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 5, which looks to achieve gender equality and empower women and girls, Exago supports women’s potential to innovate as a key driver of a more equitable future.
