Listen

“We needed a whole new group of innovators and an ecosystem really to create a new wave of women’s health innovations in the U.S.” 

That realization inspired Elizabeth Bailey to pursue possibilities to improve opportunities for women’s health investing and innovation. 

Bailey, the co-founder and managing director of Foreground Capital, talks about the path to solutions in the second episode of “From Problems to Possibilities: Entrepreneurial Leadership in Action,” Babson’s new podcast. 

The new episode, titled “Believe Them, Include Them, Fund Them,” explores how entrepreneurial leaders are improving health care for women, featuring Bailey, as well as: 

  • Associate Professor Wiljeana Glover, founding faculty director, Kerry Murphy Healey Center for Health Innovation and Entrepreneurship (KMH Center) 
  • Mary Tinebra MBA’90, business partner and chief commercialization officer at Inflection who also serves on the advisory board of the KMH Center 

The episode is available on AppleSpotify, and Amazon, and you can listen here:
