Although Fortune MPW Entrepreneurs is a relatively new initiative, the winners have already seen great success. Lynn Jurich’s SunRun has grown to become a leading home solar service provider, with over 11,000 customers. Jenn Hyman‘s and Jenny Fleiss’ Rent the Runway is changing the way women shop on the web. Michelle Marciniak and Susan Walvius have gotten SHEEX—high-performance bedding made of the moisture-wicking fabric used in sports apparel—into Bed Bath & Beyond stores across the U.S. Lauren Bush is expanding her FEED Projects bag business—and creating FEED skirts with her younger sister, Ashley. A portion of FEED’s revenue goes to feed hungry children.

Each year, Fortune recognizes 10 female entrepreneurs who are outstanding game changers, groundbreakers, and innovators.

Below is the full list of 2012 MPW Entrepreneurs: 10 standout women selected from a group of 133 applicants because they have created innovative companies that could be big and global someday. Or already are. We are inviting all 10 of the MPW Entrepreneurs to join us at the Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit October 1-3 in Laguna Niguel, California.
