Houston has been all over the Forbes list lately, having been recently named the nation’s “Coolest City” (which clearly means they didn’t visit in June). But one thing is for sure in the Bayou City right now… the business climate is red-hot, and very favorable for female founders. Houston lands on Forbes’ latest list as the number 2 city for female founders in the U.S. New York was number one, but Texas had a very strong showing with Dallas nabbing the number three spot, and San Antonio coming in at 15th.
