Why did we invest?
Women empowerment
The Pipeline stands out for its mission to address gender disparity in senior roles, empowering women to break barriers and achieve executive excellence. Through programmes like Top Flight and Leadership Summit, the company provides tailored development experiences that enhance confidence, career focus, connectivity, and resilience for women leaders. Its measurable impact—such as 80% of participants being promoted within a year—aligns seamlessly with our vision to promote gender parity at senior levels.
Leading position in market
We have been impressed by The Pipeline’s strong market position and proven ability to deliver results. With a portfolio including FTSE 350 companies and civil service organisations, the company has demonstrated its capacity to scale while maintaining exceptional programme quality. By partnering with The Pipeline, we are supporting a purpose-driven business that not only advances gender parity but also sets new benchmarks for leadership development across industries.
Key Impact areas
Reshaping the narrative
The Pipeline has helped over 1,500 women achieve career advancement. 25% of Top Flight attendees are promoted to CEO, MD, Perm Sec or NED. 38% of Leadership Summit attendees consistently achieve promotion within 6 months.
Bridging the gender gap through measurable outcomes
By partnering with FTSE 350 companies and government departments, The Pipeline enhances talent pipelines while increasing retention and creating a broader pool of women leaders. It is well proven that organisations with higher women representation at senior levels achieve better financial outcomes.
Building organisational talent pipelines
The Pipeline advocates for systemic change within the leadership structures of organisations. While companies typically achieve gender balance at entry levels, women consistently face obstacles in advancing to middle management and beyond. Pipeline is a campaigning organisation disrupting entrenched patterns and fostering true gender equity.
