Kobe Bryant to Launch a $100 Million Investment Fund

With his NBA career in the rearview, Kobe Bryant is looking to focus on his investment game.

According to Wall Street Journal, the NBA legend is looking to make his mark as a venture capitalist, with the launch of a $100 million investment fund with entrepreneur Jeff Stibel.

The fund plans to invest in technology, media and data companies.

Kobe and Stibel has invested informally in 15 companies over the past three years, but have now formed an official partnership with their new VC firm, Bryant Stibel.
