🌍 The European health industry boasts a strong heritage of academic excellence and a diverse workforce, which are key competitive advantages. However, a persistent skills gap, especially in soft skills, must be addressed. https://loom.ly/d3Pb1Z8 📊 A collaborative report from European Investment Fund (EIF) and WorkInHealth Foundation explores skill gaps and investor attitudes within the European health innovation sector. It highlights the following soft skills gaps: leadership, communication, business development, and strategic planning. These are crucial for product development despite high technical competencies. An entrepreneurial mindset is essential to thrive in the European Health ecosystem. 📈 Venture capital and startup firms recognise these soft skills' importance for innovation but find them lacking in teams. While Europe excels in technical skills, gaps in STEM expertise and data analysis need attention to foster innovation. 🤝 A multifaceted approach is needed to address these skill gaps. Collaboration between academia, government, and corporate entities is key to enhancing workforce training. Flexible working conditions and mentoring programs are essential for talent retention and loyalty. 🌟 Diversity is not just a buzzword but a strategic necessity. VCs are prioritising gender diversity in recruitment, recognising its role in fostering innovation and inclusive cultures. Diverse backgrounds and perspectives drive creativity and effective communication. How can we better equip the European health sector to meet these evolving challenges? Share your thoughts! #DigitalHealth #SkillsGap #HealthTech #DiversityInHealth
