Social media maven Amanda de Cadenet started her companyy Girlgaze as a social hashtag, but soon after was able to grow it into an offline media company. Girlgaze is a digital media company that promotes the work of female photographers and directors. De Cadenet shared with Cheddar how her organization has landed her a partnership with Google Pixel, to further help support young female-identifying photographers and directors, as they start their career. She explained that big partnerships like that help legitimize the photographers and accelerate their goals. The entrepreneur spoke with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles about what inspired her to create the company, and how much she would have appreciated an organization that supported her the same way that she's created a platform that supports women, as she was starting out in the industry.

Musk loses crown as world’s richest to software giant Larry Ellison
Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison wrested the title of the world’s richest man from longtime holder Elon Musk early Wednesday as stock in his software giant rocketed more than a third in a stunning few minutes of trading. That is according to wealth tracker Bloomberg. A college dropout, the 81-year-old Ellison is now worth $393 billion, Bloomberg says, several billion more than Musk, who had been the world’s richest for four years. The switch in the ranking came after a blockbuster earnings report from Oracle. Forbes still has Musk as the richest, however, valuing his private businesses much higher.
