Forbes Launches ForbesWoman

In 2004, Forbes introduced the first roster of The 100 Most Powerful Women.

Now, in 2009, Forbes takes things a step further with ForbesWoman, a platform that speaks directly to women in a new way that only Forbes can. The goal is to reach and build a global community of smart, accomplished women who are curious about one another.

A focus on women is not new at Forbes. On the cover of the debut issue in 1917 (price: 15 cents), B.C. Forbes, a Scottish immigrant, ran a prominent headline proclaiming, "Unique Department: Women in Business." Early issues ran long profiles of a female department store executive, a banker and an export-import manager.

The ranks of these women are growing rapidly, and we wish ForbesWoman tremendous success with this new launch. Visit: http://www.forbes.com/forbeswoman/
