What are all the publicly traded companies in the U.S. led by women?

June 21, 2018 2:36 PM

I've been trying to find a list of publicly-traded companies that are led by women, but I can only find women CEOs of the Fortune 500. I'm looking for a list of *all* the publicly traded companies in the U.S. run by women-- even small companies!

Bonus: also curious about publicly traded companies with lots of women on the board.

I think EDGAR would probably be the source of this data, in case this list hasn't already been compiled and you have to do it yourself.

Do you have access to Hoover's? They have a list-building feature and you can customize what you want in your list results.

I would also look at Catalyst - this seems like something they would have already done research on.

FYI, I would be surprised if gender of CEO is a checkbox on the IPO paperwork (also, CEOs change over time), so there's probably some significant effort involved in compiling this information.
