According to the authors, just 2.7 percent of venture capital-funded companies have a female CEO, and 56 percent of women in technology drop out mid-career. As their series is said to be scripted, it will likely follow fictional characters in the tech industry based on real-life women.

Kelly and Mark previously met on the set of All My Children back in 1995, and have three children together: Michael, 19, Lola, 15, and Joaquin, 14. Kelly is currently the host of the long-running morning talk show, Live! With Kelly, while Mark was most recently seen as Oscar Arguella in FOX’s primetime series Pitch.

They have also produced series for TLC, CMT, and LOGO. Their most current project is the reality series Fire Island, premiering on LOGO.
