The 10 Most Funded Startups Founded by Women in NYC

Reza Chowdhury by Reza Chowdhury
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Today, I take a look at the 10 startups in NYC that have raised the most amount of equity funding since their launches that have at least one woman on the founding team, using some data from our friends at CrunchBase. I have included some additional information as well, such as year of first funding, date of last funding, industry, number of rounds, and founding date to further the analysis. In order to maintain a focus on conventional tech startups, pharmaceutical and biotech companies were removed from the data.
