    Abstract: Questions around the persistent underrepresentation of women and racial minorities in high-growth entrepreneurship and innovation contexts have drawn substantial scholarly interest in the last decade. Much of the focus envelops two inquiries: what are the root causes of these disparities, and how might they be effectively addressed? In this session, we bring together a panel of leading and rising scholars to share their recent work and diverse perspectives on these issues. The presentations will showcase areas of active research and latest empirical methodologies used to explore open research questions in this domain. Roundtable discussions will support the exploration of multiple perspectives, development of new and on-going research among participants, and promote the formation of collaborative ties among scholars at all stages of their careers.

    Format: The PDW will feature rapid-fire presentations by the invited panelists, interspersed with brain-storming activities for the attendees, which will then be followed by interactive roundtable discussions with the panelists. Participation in both segments of the workshop is encouraged and open to all registered attendees.
