Only 9% Women Entrepreneurs: Are Startups Ignoring Women?

Where are the women in India's startup scenario? There are barely any women founders, not just in India but in top startup economies globally. Now, a new study in the US has found that startups with at least one female founder build companies where nearly half the staff is women. In fact women-led firms, the study found, have nearly twice the industry average and outpace some of America's largest tech companies in gender diversity - including Google, Facebook and Uber.
