Some people believe that this is an inflated statistic. Yet when you think about the number of sites devoted strictly to women, it makes sense. In the United States, many new businesses linked to the Internet are launched by women whose technical knowledge is far from exhaustive. New York-based Silicon Alley is representative of the emergence of Internet services, as opposed to the ostensibly male Silicon Valley in California, where a great deal of software and computer hardware is created. Women's admission in the high-tech sector now happens through the side door of communication and marketing.
Women are also project directors in the fields of video games, CD-rom and network development.
Graphic design is another growth field that is popular with women. Women adapt quickly and think fast. This is a must with new technologies. We welcome your feedback. All rights reserved.
