Co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Founder of Pivotal Ventures. Author of The Moment of Lift.
Every year, leaders from around the world gather at The World Bank and International Monetary Fund Spring Meetings in D.C. to align on efforts to reduce poverty and accelerate economic growth. And every year, I keep a close eye on how those efforts will benefit women—who are so often left behind when big policy decisions get made. Here are a few outtakes from last week’s meetings, where I spoke about solutions that can help women entrepreneurs access the capital they need to pursue the opportunities they want. https://m-gat.es/44cpakA
