“…Kushnirovich and Heilbrunn [50], who use a survey from Israel, find that culture, rather than gender, has a significant impact on innovation. However, it is contrary to results of Østergaard et al [25], Horbach and Jacob [45], Nielsen, Bloch, and Schiebinger [46], and Dai, Byun, and Ding [47]. These studies find that gender diversity improves innovation.…”

“…Horbach and Jacob [45], based on the German employee database of the Institute for Employment Research, demonstrate that highly-qualified female workers with a university education and a mixed-gender management board have a positive effect on a firm's innovation. Nielsen, Bloch, and Schiebinger [46] find that gender diversity of employees can positively influence scientific discovery and innovation by three approaches to gender diversity: (1) diversity in research teams, (2) diversity in research methods, and (3) diversity in research questions. Furthermore, in the context of new ventures, there is a positive relationship between the gender diversity of new venture firms and their innovation performance [47].…”

“…Given this situation, institutions such as the European Commission are working on gendered innovation, which aims at including the gender/sex analysis and gender diversity among research and innovation and is one of the Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) indicators in the field of Science and Technology considered by the European Union. In fact, ensuring the incorporation of the gender perspective supposes a crosscutting issue for the European Commission in its Horizon 2020 funding program in every stage of the research process, where not only diversity in research teams needs to be fulfilled but also diversity in research methods and in research questions [31].…”

“…Studies of science and medicine offer perhaps the best characterized examples of the potential impact of female representation. Gender diversity may impact scientific research and innovation in two important ways, beyond possible benefits to performance and innovation (Nielsen, Bloch, & Schiebinger, ). First, it may lead to greater diversity in research methods, in particular, the inclusion of “sex and gender analysis”—that is, a lens that explicitly takes sex and gender into account—that can give rise to new insights, increased validity or precision, and better servicing of females’ needs (Schiebinger, ).…”

“…The second proposed impact of gender diversity is on “research priorities and agendas” (Nielsen et al., , p. 728). In academic research, values shape the research programs considered worthy of resources and investigation.…”
