Janneke Niessen, co-initiator of Inspiring Fifty, said “Looking at the Inspiring Fifty of this year really makes me proud. These fifty women are the best of the best, with truly inspirational careers.”

Shari Yoder Doherty from Atomico, which is in partnership with Inspiring Fifty, said “What a fantastic group of inspirational women. It was a tough selection process as we had hundreds of impressive nominations, but these fifty stood out for their experience and achievements, particularly over the past year. One thing they all have in common is a very obvious passion for the tech industry, which makes them the perfect role models to inspire other women looking to build a career in the sector.”
