27 Female Founders In Tech To Follow On Twitter

As part of our Women in Tech series, we've compiled a list of 27 female founders who are changing industries, reshaping the public sector, doing good, and helping others, all by using technology in creative new ways.

These women are also active Twitter users who are each worth following for the insights and advice they offer about everything from entrepreneurship and VCs to social media and coding. They include CEOs and CTOs, experienced entrepreneurs and experts, scientists and engineers.

Our list is not exhaustive--there are many more amazing female, tech-industry entrepreneurs we could have included--and now we'd love to hear from you: What other female founders in tech should we add to our list of must-follow tweeters? Let us know by tweeting @bbosker using the hashtag #womenintech, or weigh in via the comments below.

For more from our Women in Tech series, which includes profiles of tech pioneers like Marissa Mayer and Gilt Groupe's Susan Lyne, check out our slideshow of reader's picks for women in tech to follow on Twitter, as well as our list of 18 female founders to watch.

I think @hmason should be on this list. She is the chief scientist at bit.ly, an expert on machine learning, a tremendous speaker, a former professor, and just damn cool.

Never heard of one of them but adventual they will all look like Mrs.Gates.

Twitter has more drama, than Myspace+Facebook....

The only contribution women have made to the Tech Industry is to have dinner ready when their husband comes home late at night!

That's some real sexist crap!

Ada 'Lady' Lovelace? Mary Allen Wilkes? Roberta Williams? Anyone who played video games knows that name.

Women involved with programming is old news, they just don't get the attention they deserve.

Who came up with this list?

I see you didn't graduate to high in the class

[360Dunk]

Maybe she didn't. Yet unlike you, Ashley can probably spell 'too', which means she was above you in the class rankings.

The most advanced technology is purely mental. Make the brain highly coherent through the technology of consciousness. Women who meditate have lazer sharp minds.

Amy Jo Martin: "Take risks & fail early so when everyone else hops on the bandwagon their failing process begins when you're winning."

This simply doesn't make sense.
If I'm missing something, clue me in.

How does that not make sense to you? It means to always stay ahead of the game, so that when people are failing from the same mistakes you made earlier, you've already learned from them and have moved forward. It seperates you from the herd.

how about female founder NOT in tech???

[NRAMember2008]

Tech is all this modern day society cares about, if your not the founder of some video game to help Lay's potato eating fat kid on the couch. your not cool enough. Sorry Blame society

Why isn't_Steve_Jobs on this list? Some HP staffer is going to be punished.
