No Women In The Tech Rich List!

Bill Gates heads up the richest people in tech according to TechCrunch!

But where are the ladies?

Any tech conference I’ve been to has had strong and impressive women speaking and driving thought leadership, so am I opening a can of worms by asking why there seems to be none on the big time pay rolls?

    I know, we trust that will change in the near future. We write a lot about female internet heroes on our online women’s business magazine. we have a database of 700 female internet hreos, investors, founders and CxO’s in internet companies.

    Very cool Simone – Have you checked out http://www.boudica.com – it’s the brain child of Lorna Harris – Danny Sullivan’s wife.

    I’m thinking that will change soon as Simone said, but you also have to realize many things about women. These are GROSS generalizations and are not applicable to every woman out there. But generally women do not spend their lives in top careers (family issues), most of us are bad at and don’t like negotiating salaries (research proves it), and until now technology was a largely male dominated industry. It still is to a point, but couple that with everything else and you have just a few reasons. It’s sad, but I am sure it’ll change with time.
