Candice Cabe
On Sunday afternoon we posted an article about the top 12 female CEOs in the Boston area to follow on Twitter. In creating that post, we hoped women in the startup community, established or up-and-coming, would take heed and follow that list, and based on the activity we’ve seen on Twitter targeting that post, we were right!
This goes to show that our prediction at BostInnovation that women are starting to make more moves in the entrepreneurial space in Boston was fair. The entrepreneurial ecosystem around us is full of women who are starting companies or want to be involved in one way or another in the startup community — call them ladypreneurs.
Let’s welcome these five women to the startup ecosystem and stoke the startup fire for more women to go after their dreams and build their startups from ground zero. Here is a little bit about their startups — none of which have been featured yet on BostInno. After each capsule, you’ll find a tweet from them in italics we found relevant and useful.
