βMy Mission after Tennis is investing in us!β ItΒ΄s Roland Garros time πΎ and how not to think about Serena Williams. Besides of all her triumphs, she was able to take her #passion and channel it into a successful #career from every angle.
Her legacy goes beyond what she achieved in the tennis court, as she continuously challenged stereotypes while #empowering young women and children for over nearly three decades! πͺ
“My mission after tennis is investing in us! Women, people of color and diversity.”
Williams’ venture capital fund -Serena Ventures-, is proof of this. About 79% of the businesses backed by the company have underrepresented founders, 54% of which are women.ππ»
Once again #diversity is paying off, as 14 of the 85 companies of her portfolio are #unicorns or startups with a value of more than $1 billion.π€―
Can you think of any other admirable person that inspires you to #brake_barriers ?
