Oprah Winfrey

Winfrey invests like an operator, taking sizeable equity positions in consumer brands she personally uses and promotes, often joining the board rather than going through a fund.

When: Backed the $110M Series D (2021) that pushed Maven to a $1B+ valuation, the first women's-health unicorn
Why: Women's health, values-aligned and female-led.
Status: Later valued at $1.7B at its 2024 Series F.

The position: Invested in the women's and family-health startup at its Series B; Maven later raised a $45M Series C, bringing total funding above $87M.
