#53-Working Mothers Are Rocking in Seed-Stage Startups


In the brilliant words of Thomas Hardy, “The perfect woman, you see [is] a working-woman; not an idler; not a fine lady; but one who [uses] her hands and her head and her heart for the good of others.” Approximately, there are 386,567 women employees with children in seed-stage startups in the US. We have reviewed statistics from reliable sources and articles from reputed news outlets to estimate the number of women employees with children in seed-stage startups in the US. From what we have read, the number of women with children working in seed-stage startups in the US is on the rise.

Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation is an eminent organization which collates data on the state of entrepreneurship in the US and analyzes the data from multiple angles to arrive at interesting conclusions. The foundation works in close coordination with government organizations in its research endeavors. According to the information available from 2016 The Kauffman Index Startup Activity National Trends P. 5, there are approximately 5,000,000 employer businesses in the US.  In P. 6, we can see that the startup density in the US is 80.4. The report defines startup density as the number of startup businesses per 1,000 employer businesses. The report defines a startup business as "employer firms less than one year old employing at least one person besides the owner." In 2015, startup density was slightly higher, 81.9. Small Business Trends reports that the average number of employees in a startup is declining in the recent years. U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports, the average size of a new startup is 4.7 employees. US Department of Labor reports, there are 31 million working mothers who have children aged below 18. Trading Economics, a leading provider of economic data collected from official sources, reports that there are 151,517,000 employed persons in the US.

As mentioned above, there are 80.4 startup businesses of less than one year age for every 1000 employer businesses in the US. We can safely assume that all of these startups are seed-stage startups as they are all less than one year age. There are approximately 5 million employer businesses in the US. Therefore, the approximate number of seed-stage startups in the US is (80.4*(5,000,000/1,000)) or 402,000. The average size of a new startup is 4.7 employees. Multiplying this number by the approximate number of seed-stage startups in the US, we get the total number of people who are working in  seed-stage startups. The number is (402,000*4.7) or 1,889,400 approximately. Out of the number of  151,517,000 employed persons in the US, 31,000,000 are working mothers who have children aged below 18. Assuming the working mothers are evenly distributed over all categories of companies, we can estimate the there are approximately (1,889,400*(31,000,000/151,517,000)) or 386,567 women with children under the age of 18 years working in seed-stage startups.

To wrap it up, the number of mothers among everyone working for seed-stage startups in the US is 386,567. We have used several safe and solid assumptions to arrive at the estimate as the figure was not available from any official source directly or indirectly.

From 1970-1990, cinema ticketing and banking was not much different from the customer's perspective due to the fact that a significant part of the job was done manually. Then, IT journey started with standalone software (VB, Java). After some time, they were replaced with distributed software (CORBA, RMI, MOM).
