Melinda French Gates Joins Kraken Ownership
Description
Melinda French Gates is making her move into professional sports, set to become a minority investor in the Seattle Kraken hockey team — a major leap for the philanthropist, who’s never owned a sports franchise before. Joining a powerhouse ownership group that includes tech titans and entertainment moguls, she’s bringing her deep ties to Seattle and her track record in social impact to the table. With the Kraken’s ownership team eyeing an NBA return for the city and launching a new entity, One Roof Sports and Entertainment, French Gates’ involvement signals a bold, multi-sport vision for Seattle’s future — blending business savvy with community investment.
