Be sure to follow Biotech CEO Sisterhood!
In 2021, Angie You, Julia Owens and Sheila Gujrathi, MD came together with a shared vision: to create a community where women leaders could actively support one another, tackle unique challenges in our field, and help shape the future of science by advancing workplace equality. Today, under 25% of executive roles are held by women — and even fewer women are CEOs. We are the Biotech CEO Sisterhood, and together with our 300+ members, we are here to change the trajectory and narrative for women leaders in our industry. Join us as we work to uplift, inspire, and build a network committed to reshaping biotech. #BiotechCEOSisterhood #WomenInBiotech #Leadership #Innovation #Community #WomenLiftingWomen
