Webinar invitation: Gender-sensitive pipeline identification and investee selection
Many investors adopt the 2X Criteria yet still end up with imbalanced portfolios because the core bottlenecks lie earlier in the funnel, such as pipeline sourcing and first cuts, rather than in due diligence metrics alone. This practical session provides a comprehensive overview of gender-sensitive pipeline selection, including what the approach entails, why portfolios often drift toward imbalance in practice, and, most importantly, how to embed it across outreach, first screening, due diligence, and investment committee decisions.
On top of the theoretical part, the webinar will feature two guest speakers, Diana Alejandra Ramírez Loaiza (Country Director, Colombia, NESsT) and Josué C. Montenegro Orozco (Analyst, IMPAQTO), who will share their practical experience introducing gender‑sensitive practices into pipeline identification and investee selection, including common pitfalls, what they would do differently, and lessons learned in real‑world contexts
