SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GemmaQ enhances its gender diversity analysis platform by integrating financial data, providing a gender-focused stock market overview. The platform builds on Freyja Thorarinsdottir's background in financial markets, legal expertise and academic research. Motivated by the compelling business case for gender diversity, Freyja developed GemmaQ into a tech platform. Now, with added financial data, users get a comprehensive view, combining company financials with gender diversity insights.
"In the rapidly evolving landscape of gender lens investing, the demand for quality data, sophisticated tools, and transparent insights has never been higher," said Freyja Thorarinsdottir, founder and CEO of GemmaQ.
As of end of year 2023, women make up 26.4% of executive positions and 31.6% directors among the Fortune 500 companies. However, the current pace of change, coupled with the decline in the promotion of women to leadership roles, suggests that achieving a 50/50 gender balance in the C-suite will not be reached until 2099, as detailed in GemmaQ’s December 2023 report.
Do we, as a society and corporate world, want to wait until 2099, the end of the 21st century, to see equal representation of women at the highest levels of corporate leadership?
The platform invites the community to join its mission, offering subscriptions at $4.99 monthly, with an introductory 30-day free trial. This initiative enables investors to leverage gender diversity and financial data for informed decision-making.
GemmaQ's methodology evaluates corporate leadership gender diversity, aligning with UN's Sustainable Development Goal 5.5 for equal leadership opportunities. “GemmaQ is more than a platform; it's a movement to redefine the financial landscape through the lens of gender diversity. We're dedicated to empowering our users with the tools needed to make informed decisions that not only yield financial returns but also contribute to a more equitable world,” Freyja emphasizes.
