With all love and respect to my sisters in product management, marketing, sales, finance, HR, 50 years of IT history strongly suggests that technology companies will ever continue to be founded by entrepreneurs from engineering backgrounds; and if women never become engineers in sufficient numbers, they will disproportionately fail to experience the upper end of [...]
