CEO Of Arieso Wins Outstanding Woman In Tech Award
Over on Morten Lund's blog, we learned why he has the username Sexism. The Danish biz angel and entrepreneur wrote a post about it - he's worried about his daughters' opportunities in the future due to the scarcity of women in the top ranks of the tech sector.
It's a theme that comes up from time to time and it's not limited to Europe (see Under The Radar link below). So when we saw the news that Shirin Dehghan (image right), the CEO of Arieso, a venture-backed telco network optimisation and planning solutions startup, we thought it was worth noting.
Dehgan received the BlackBerry Outstanding Woman in Technology Award for 2006, as well as the Best Woman in Technology Award in the small and medium sized business category. Arieso was founded in 2002 and is backed by Add Partners and Top Technology Ventures, both based in the UK.
