Yael Gruenbaum-Cohen holds both a DMD and a PhD in molecular genetics, and she has also co-founded a biotech company, Andlit Therapeutics, giving her direct experience building a company in addition to investing in one. She also co-founded WE@HealthTech, a program that helps mid-career women in Israeli healthtech move into executive roles through peer groups rather than one-on-one mentorship, pointing to results like 34% of participants being promoted within two years, and when evaluating female founders she focuses less on who they are now and more on who they could become, while emphasizing the kind of community and peer support that helps women open doors for one another.
