Danielle Weisberg & Carly Zakin
These days, every morning feels like a media minefield - there are just so many WTF headlines about important current events, it's almost impossible to know where to start. If you are one of TheSkimm's millions of subscribers, however, you know that it's actually easy to stay informed. Danielle Weisberg and Carly Zakin were in their early 20s when they left their jobs at NBC to launch the daily newsletter, which presents need-to-know news in easily digestible tidbits. This year is set to be huge for the entrepreneurs, as their last round of funding (led by Google Ventures) brought in $12 million.
