Hey Guys!
Really liked the blogpost by Celine Tevy Ly ” WHAT ABOUT FEMALE ENTREPRENEURS ?” which inspired be to look around and see what kind of big and famous tech-female entrepreneurs we have. Found this video on Ted talks about Dame Stephanie Shirley. I have never heard of her before but in the 1960s, she founded a pioneering all-woman software company in the UK, which was recently valued at $3 billion, making 70 people on her team millionaires. In the video she explains why she went by “Steve,” how she upended the expectations of the time, and shares some sure-fire ways to identify ambitious women.
