EIB launches Women Climate Leaders Network

Forty-seven women who work for private companies, including representatives of all 27 countries of the EU, have joined the Women Climate Leaders Network, which the EIB Group recently convened. The goal of the network is to “share knowledge and best practices for accelerating climate action, and work on new business models and ways to enable the low-carbon and green transformation.” Among the motivations for creating the group is EIB research that indicates women-led firms perform better on ESG measures than do companies run by men.
