Apologies to #2 if I'm wrong about it being sole founder. I'd say it's more successful than some of the revenue-free entries on this list.
- troymc 12y agoThis is an excellent question. There are plenty of tech companies which happen to have been founded by one woman. Why not include some? I suspect this wasn't a deliberate oversight by the author, but it does illustrate the benefit of having an editor or some other feedback before clicking Publish. Examples: Blurb, founded by Eileen Gittins Mightybell, founded by Gina Bianchini LearnVest, founded by Alexa von Tobel Joyus, founded by Sukhinder Singh Cassidy
