From venture capitalism to humanitarian efforts, Serena Williams is defining her own extraordinary second act.
Since “evolving away from tennis” in 2022, Serena Williams has not merely retired; she has launched into an incredibly active and impactful life that continues to amaze. Far from resting on her laurels, her days are filled with purpose, family, and groundbreaking ventures.
Her venture capital firm, Serena Ventures, is thriving, with investments in over 120 companies, many of which are founded by women and people of color. She is deeply involved in the firm’s operations, even providing her direct cell phone to founders and helping resolve disputes. Beyond business, Serena is a devoted mother to her two daughters, embracing the joys and challenges of parenthood. She’s also recently taken on the role of Entrepreneur-in-Residence for Reckitt’s Catalyst program, dedicating her time to mentoring health and hygiene startups globally.
Furthermore, fans can look forward to her upcoming video podcast with sister Venus, “Unfiltered Truth,” launching exclusively on X this fall. Serena Williams is not just living life after tennis; she’s redefining what it means to be a modern icon, seamlessly blending business acumen, philanthropy, and family life into an incredible second act.
