"I've become a partner in Public" - Sharapova announces new investment

Former five-time Grand Slam champion Maria Sharapova has announced that she has become a partner and an investor in a platform called "Public."

Sharapova, a former world No. 1, enjoyed a successful tennis career and now she is focused on growing her businesses and investing in businesses in which she sees potential. She announced her newest venture online writing:

“This is a little announcement. It looks very formal as I sit here at the hotel desk to say that I have become a partner and investor in a platform called Public. For those of you that much about the financial or investment space, it can seem incredibly intimidating, not very simple. What I love about Public is how user-friendly and uncomplicated it really is”.

She further said:

“40% of the audience at Public, are female which in the space is unheard of.

If I may say so myself. 45% of the audience are people of color. I am incredibly proud to partner with a platform that represents such a diverse group and one of the main reasons I have invested. I will be doing a public live in December, so stay tuned for the date. Can’t wait to see you there. Join me!"
