In The Spotlight

Kim Kardashian Gives Lecture at Harvard Business School.

Yet another win for Kim Kardashian as the reality TV star and businesswoman, visited HBS in Cambridge, Massachusetts on Friday. Kim and Skims co-founder Jens Grede, as a part of a direct-to-consumer seminar, gave a talk to students about the shapewear company for nearly two hours.

Though cameras did follow her around campus, the seminar itself was not filmed.

Kardashian's Skims brand doubled in valuation last year after a $240 million financing round led by hedge fund Lone Pine Capital and investment firm D1 Capital Partners.

Kardashian's net worth is estimated to be $1.4 billion.

The company is currently estimated to be worth around $3.2 billion.

Though Kardashian has quite an impressive business portfolio, the bulk of her non-endorsement-deal earnings come from majority equity stakes in Skims and her beauty line, KKW Beauty, in which she sold a 20% stake for $200 million in 2020.
