Chelsea Clinton is reportedly entering the venture capital scene.
That's according to Axios' Kia Kokalitcheva and Dan Primack, who reported Thursday morning that Clinton is in the "very early stages" of forming a new fund called Metrodora Ventures, named after one of the first women to write a medical text.
Axios reports that Clinton is still determining whether she wants to become a full-time VC, but noted that the name of the fund was registered in April, there's a draft pitch deck being passed around, and Metrodora Ventures has its own Twitter account, created in July.
On Twitter, the firm describes itself as "a values conscious venture capital firm focused on health and learning businesses." According to Axios, Clinton has committed to personally investing in two startups, including Poppy Seed Health, an app that connects pregnant people with nurses, midwives, and doulas for 24/7 support. Those investments would be rolled into the fund, Axios reports.
A spokesperson for Clinton did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.
Clinton is currently vice chair of the Clinton Foundation and a public health expert, teaching at the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University. Clinton has been involved in investing and startups in the past: She worked at $12 billion hedge fund Avenue Capital, launched a professional development network for female entrepreneurs working in renewable energy, and currently serves on the boards of IAC, Expedia Group, and telemedicine startup Nurx.

She’s “teaching” at a school of public health.
It must be a chair funded by Burisma or the Chinese?
As I recall, she started out allegedly pre-med at Stanford and didn’t cut it.
Being a Clinton, that certainly didn’t matter to her career.
can’t grift enough in their charity org, apparently
I’m sure all the enemies of the United States, foreign and domestic, are lining up to invest in her so called “Venture Capital”.
Oh, she’ll hire very smart suckups to do the actual work.
Any thing she does....will be to screw those giving money to her...
Grifters all.
A Clinton has never made an honest living.
The epitome of white privilege the Clintons are.
Unindicted co-conspirator of the Clinton crime syndicate.
Excellent.
and this is why the little people never get ahead....everything is FIXED....FIXED....FIXED.......
Sex and flimflam is all the family knows.
Rosemary’s Baby
Has there ever been a family that has profiteered from politics more than these Arkie grifters? They’ve gone from stone-cold broke 30 years ago to mega-millionaire VC capitalists. Ain’t public service grand? I know that the Obamas have done quite well too, but the Clintons make them look like pikers. And maybe I’m wrong about this, but I don’t think Mooch and the girls seem like such shamelessly greedy wenches as Hills and Chels.
“She is every bit as qualified as Hunter Biden was to work in the energy field.”
Nailed it!
Conveniently, she picks two business sectors heavily connected to government contracts and grants, and sectors where a politically connected person would be able to put a thumb on some scales and make heaps of cash.
How could you?
He did teach her how to steal $450 million
Goldman Sacks let him the money with zero experience other then a father who was convicted of fraud. Another clinton money laundering operation.
