1,000,000,000,000 That's the potential boost to the global economy by 2040 if we close the women's health gap. Many assume that the women’s health gap primarily manifests later in life. It’s also often connected to women’s living longer on average. But… We've found that majority of the gap appears during women's prime working years.👩💻 Over half the women in tech leave the industry by the midpoint of their careers** More than double the rate of men** Not addressing this could have huge economic implications. Because if women were healthier, they could be more productive.🤗 Female biology is different from male biology—beyond the reproductive system. Some diseases manifest differently in women than in men. Raising more awareness and addressing those differences in healthcare can result in better health and economic outcomes.❤️ *McKinsey & Company | Lucy Perez: Improving women’s health could improve the world’s economy ➡️https://lnkd.in/eH3Bv8-s **See our post on this topic ➡️https://lnkd.in/eJkF7V-J

Thank you TJ Bharadva and the team CDM Media for the pleasure of speaking at the Chief Data and AI Officer conference on Thursday with the lovely Heather Wade. It was great to discuss the $1 trillion problem that should be a problem everyone cares about - #genderinequality in healthcare. I enjoyed sharing the work we are doing at Women in Data® to impact the huge inequality there is in #healthcare and the work we are doing with #retail #data in understanding #endometriosis. If you think you can help by sharing #data or #resource do let me know!
