As a venture capitalist, Ohanian co-founded Initialized Capital, an early-stage venture firm that has backed successful startups like Coinbase, Instacart, and Patreon. His investment philosophy centers around supporting visionary founders and fostering inclusive innovation in the tech industry.
Ohanian's net worth is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions, largely a result of early Reddit success and a robust investment portfolio. He has also become a vocal advocate for paid family leave and online rights, speaking at major conferences and authoring the book “Without Their Permission” in 2013.
Ohanian met Serena Williams in May 2015 at the Hotel Cavalieri in Rome. Though he had little prior interest in tennis, their initial conversation turned into a growing relationship. The couple dated for over a year before getting engaged in December 2016.
In September 2017, they welcomed their daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr. During this period, Serena experienced life-threatening postpartum complications. Ohanian took a 16-week paid paternity leave to be present with his family, later using that experience to champion federal paid parental leave in the U.S.
The couple married in November 2017 in New Orleans at a star-studded, Disney-themed wedding. Their union has often been celebrated for blending very different worlds—Silicon Valley innovation and elite athletics—into a strong and collaborative partnership.
