Interviewee

SERENA WILLIAMS has overcome insurmountable odds to win 23 career Grand Slams. Her tennis achievements, combined with her off-court success in business, venture capital, beauty and fashion, make her one of the most recognizable icons in the world. As a world-class athlete, businesswoman, philanthropist and mother, Serena Williams knows what it takes to win. Serena began actively investing nine years ago when she saw the impact that startups had on everyday lives; in building Serena Ventures, she has been able to multiply that effort. In March 2021, Serena Ventures launched its venture capital fund and currently maintains a portfolio of over 60 companies with a focus on diverse leadership.
