Kelly Keenan Trumpbour believes women should put their money where their mouths are. The 37-year-old invests her money solely in companies run by women, driven by a philosophy of female empowerment and a desire to shake up the traditional white male corporate culture. She founded See Jane Invest two years ago to help educate other women on how to become investors. Trumpbour, who sits on the board of directors for Baltimore Angels, an early-stage investment group, has invested in four women-run companies so far and plans on backing a few more this year. She typically invests about $10,000 at a time.

Apple chief executive Tim Cook said diversifying the computer giant's workforce is “the future of our company” in an interview published Monday. “And so if you believe as we believe that diversity leads to better products, and we're all about making products that enrich peoples lives, then you obviously put a ton of energy behind diversity the same way you would put a ton of energy behind anything else that is truly important,” he told Mashable.

SAN FRANCISCO — Apple, famous for parading white male executives across the stage at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, changed things up on Monday, succumbing to growing pressure not just to talk about diversity but to actually show some. At WWDC, two female Apple executives joined Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook and other mostly white male executives on stage in presenting the company's products to software developers. Jennifer Bailey announced developments with Apple Pay and Susan Prescott unveiled the company's News mobile app during the keynote presentation.
