Abstract
Drawing on the upper echelons theory and social exclusion theory, we argue that cultural
aspects as defined by Hofstede (1980) affect the relationship between gender diversity and
innovation. Using a sample of 8167 single observations for a time period of 2013-2019 from
firms in different countries. Empirically, we find evidence that the cultural aspects indeed
positively affect the relationship of gender diversity on innovation. The results are robust
using different measurements of gender diversity and using splitted samples.
