Just 17 percent of Silicon Valley startups had a woman as a member of their founding team in 2016–17.Show this thread1 reply 2 retweets 3 likesShow this thread -

Yeahhhhh. (It’s true. Most of the female founders in
@initialized’s portfolio are based outside of the Bay Area.)https://twitter.com/richard_florida/status/1098643722294702081?s=21 …Kim-Mai Cutler added,
Richard FloridaVerified account @Richard_Florida10. By contrast, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and Boulder, Colorado, startups founded by women made up, respectively, 58% & 41% of first financings in 2016–17. Women-founded startups accounted for 25% of first financings in LA and 29% of those in NY during the same period.Show this thread4 replies 0 retweets 6 likesShow this thread -

Why the difference? Different markets being addressed by Bay Area startups as opposed to startups elsewhere? Different founder culture?

NY and LA startups generally are adjacent or interface with other industries, that have a higher % of women in leadership positions.
