Kim Kardashian has received a whopping $1 million for her recent appearance at the iConnections Global Alts conference in Miami during Hedge Fund Week, according to a source close to the situation.
The 42-year-old reality TV star and aspiring lawyer spoke at the conference, held at the Fountainbleu hotel on Tuesday, about her newly launched private equity firm, SKKY Partners, which she co-founded with industry veteran Jay Sammons. The conference was packed with a sell-out crowd, with many people spilling into the hallway and overflow rooms where the event was being streamed.
Kim received enthusiastic applause and a standing ovation from the audience, according to iConnections CEO Ron Biscardi, who declined to comment on the monetary arrangements with the speakers. Despite this, Biscardi expressed his delight at the positive reception that Kim received and the impact that she had on the audience.
This appearance at the iConnections Global Alts conference comes hot on the heels of Kim’s guest speaker speech at Harvard Business School last month, where she shared her journey with business students at the university.
In a recent post on social media, Kim expressed her pride in SKKY Partners and the fact that it is now being studied at Harvard Business School. She wrote, “I’m so proud of Skims and the thought that it is a course being studied at Harvard is just crazy!!! Thank you Professor Len Schlesinger and @harvardhbs for having us. #BucketListDream”.
Overall, this recent appearance by Kim Kardashian at the iConnections Global Alts conference has further solidified her position as a leading figure in the world of business and entrepreneurship.
