Bob Iger Advises Thrive Capital Post-Disney

Former Disney CEO Bob Iger is returning to Thrive Capital as an advisor, a month after concluding his tenure at the media giant. This marks his second stint with the venture firm, having previously served as a venture partner in late 2022. Iger will collaborate with Thrive's investment teams and support its portfolio companies, which include major players like OpenAI, Stripe, and SpaceX. Thrive Capital, managing over $50 billion in assets, recently closed its tenth fund with $10 billion in capital commitments, making it the largest in its history. Iger's return signifies a strategic move for Thrive, leveraging his extensive leadership experience.
