Major Business Ventures and Investments
Roc Nation, Parkwood Entertainment, and Ownership Stakes
Jay-Z founded Roc Nation as a music label, management, and publishing company, while also holding stakes in companies like Uber, where he was an early investor and board member, and in the spirits brand Armand de Brignac, which he sold a majority stake to LVMH's Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton SEC filing on Uber. Beyoncé runs Parkwood Entertainment, which manages her music, films, and endorsements, and she has expanded into fashion with Ivy Park and fragrance lines.
Together, their portfolio includes equity in streaming platforms, sports management, real estate, and luxury brands, with public filings and interviews highlighting long-term holding strategies rather than short-term speculation.
