Sava360 brought our attention to a powerful series highlighting leading women in technology by Shelly Kapoor Collins of ShellShockd, a community of women in tech who support one another and work together to form opportunities, foster innovation and work toward equality because they believe that “technology is the greatest equalizer of the 21st century, and without women in tech, there is no equality.” sava360.com - Original article by Shelly Kapoor Collins found here.

From startup to global enterprise, talking with the GLAMSQUAD and GILT co-founder Alexandra Wilkis Wilson

Through my Women in Tech series, I have interviewed awe inspiring female tech founders who through their collective success and willingness to be door openers for other women, are doing their part to plug the leaky bucket and build the Tech pipeline.

One such female Tech entrepreneur who I had the huge honor of interviewing is Alexandra Wilkis Wilson, Co-Founder of the luxury flash sale site, The GILT Groupe (Gilt) and now CEO and Co-Founder of Glamsquad, an on demand beauty app. Whether or not Alexandra realizes it, she is becoming somewhat of a legend in the world of Technology startup founders. I was excited to gain insight into her secret sauce for success and pass along her insight to other women in Tech for whom Alexandra is a role model.
