Fortune 40 Under 40 2013 List Includes 17 Women in Business

September 19, 2013 By Susan Gunelius

While the Forbes 400 wealthiest Americans in 2013 list includes only 43 women, the Fortune 40 under 40 in 2013 list is nearly gender equal.

Seventeen women appear in the list of 40 individuals under the age of 40 who are making a big impact on the business world in 2013, but only 3 of them appear in the top ten, only four appear in the top 20, and only seven appear in the top 30. The majority (13 women) appear in the bottom ten in the Fortune ranking.

This is an improvement over the 2012 list of 40 under 40 when only 11 women appeared on the list with just one in the top 10 (Marissa Mayer) and just two in the top 20.

You can view the complete list by following the link above. Following are the women who made the Fortune 40 Under 40 List for 2013:

#1 – Marissa Mayer – Yahoo!

#9 – Tracy Britt Cool – Berkshire Hathaway

#10 – Liv Garfield – Group’s Openreach

#18 – Catherine Lacavera – Google
