No research to back that number up - just a gut feel. But lately, we've been connecting with several high powered ladies in various sectors of the industry at large, and encouragingly, more and more on the coding and development side. So were were excited to learn about Intrinio Fintech Marketplace out of St. Petersburg, FL, a financial data provider with a number of unique financial data solutions for developers, co-founded by businesswoman Rachel Carpenter.

Developers looking to build FinTech applications face two major hurdles," says Carpenter. "First, traditional data providers are used to selling to massive institutions that have no other choices about where to buy their data- this leads to prices that keep most developers out of the market.
