Serena Williams’ name is synonymous with athletic excellence, but she’s never limited her energies to the tennis court. Williams’ on-court record places her at the top of women’s tennis, but when she wasn’t busy racking 23 Grand Slams and four Olympic gold medals, she became a player in the fashion industry, an active philanthropist and film producer. But she didn’t give up that drive to succeed when she stepped away from her role as an elite athlete.
In 2014, she founded Serena Ventures, a venture capital firm that aims to level the playing field by funding startups founded by women and people of color. Today, Serena Ventures’ portfolio includes dozens of organizations, many with market values exceeding $1 billion.
We sat down with this dominant figure in tennis to discuss her role as a leader and her thoughts on developing talent in her venture capital firm, Serena Ventures. In our exclusive webinar, Williams discusses:
• strategies for inspiring your workforce
• bringing a championship mindset into the boardroom
• advocating for woman-led companies as an investor
Along the way, we explore Williams’ insights into family, success and her transition from a world-class athlete into a player in the competitive venture capital scene. For athletes, executives and professionals at all levels, this wide-ranging discussion covers topics relevant to your everyday life.
