Companies can promote health equity by developing strategies that focus on being intentional about serving patients without biases, forming alliances among stakeholders that work towards addressing the root causes of health inequities, tailoring products for diverse needs, promoting awareness, and building trust. This would help life sciences organizations deliver quality services without disparities, attract and retain the best talent, and elevate their brand reputation. To achieve health equity, leaders need to take steps to eliminate racism and other discriminatory biases rooted within the system. To overcome these barriers and encourage greater participation from underserved communities, companies must provide reliable information from trusted sources within those communities. However, a lack of awareness and trust in organizations can impede trial diversity. 
Through diversified clinical trials, patients can have access to equitable access to treatments that breaks down inequality barriers. As a part of this effort, Deloitte and 38 other organizations signed the signed GHEN’s Zero Health Gaps Pledge to adopt a multi-disciplinary approach to support diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, provide accessible and quality health services, paying employees a fair wage, and investing in safe living environments. The Deloitte Health Equity Institutes partnered with the World Economic Forum (WEF) to develop the Global Health Equity Network (GHEN) to ensure health equity across businesses. Life sciences companies need to develop strategies that places health equity at the heart of their business operations and extend across their organization, offerings, community, and ecosystem. These inequities also cost life sciences companies substantially in lost productivity annually.
