It's unbelievable that in 2020 that out of every pound invested in growing companies.... 1p goes to all female teams and (wait for it...) 89p goes to all male. Let's work together to get more diversity into innovation (and into all parts of life) @KTNUK @innovateuk @UKRI_News

"1p in every £1 invested goes to all female teams. 89p in every £1 invested goes to all male teams. It is 2020!"
