As technology trends change, each year more leaders in the industry emerge with the next greatest solution or platform. And believe it or not (I love this part!), many of these start-up founders are women. From creating targeted mobile advertising to a cool new device, these women are changing the face of technology, how we use and what we use it for. Inc.com put together this incredible list of women in tech to watch in 2013 and I had to share. Check out the top 10 below.
