I agree Karen, why are they all 30 or 40-something guys?

You forgot to add the husband and wife CEO team at Darn Good Digs. We're perhaps a more modest startup than any of these companies, but we have top-notch content and our own unique business model.

Hi Karen,

You know what? I had the same reaction when I have put together all pictures. I will make sure I interview female CEOs on the next round. Already identified one. To be fair, I don't see many CEOs of travel startups, but please feel free to introduce me any. Cheers and see you at Travel Blog Camp. Guillaume

Couldn't help but notice all travel startup CEOs are male.

@Ann Onymous - I have also asked myself this question in the last 2 days. PollDaddy is a reputable poll service company. I have set up the poll so that people can't vote twice. But I believe some company took advantage of it by email people to vote for their company or they remove the cookie from their PC so they can vote twice. I will make sure next time I will have a stronger restriction on the votes. Meaning, cookie+ip address. I guess at the end of the day, every company was treated in the same way and have the same level of chance to win the contest.
