Kim Kardashian put her own spin on business chic to attend this year’s iConnections Global Alts conference in Miami, Florida on Tuesday.

The reality TV star, 42, was there to discuss her newly launched private-equity firm SKKY Partners with co-founder and industry veteran Jay Sammons.

Kim – who is worth an estimated $1.8 billion – took to the stage in a sexy black latex outfit consisting of skintight pants and a skimpy bandeau top.

For a classic touch, the SKIMS founder layered up with a black Jacquard blazer that buttoned at the waist.

She slipped her feet into pointy black vinyl boots and accessorized with a Victorian-inspired choker necklace.

Her silky raven tresses were worn in loose, voluminous waves that fell to her waist.

Kim rocked her signature smokey eyeshadow and glossy nude lip for the occasion.

Kim oozed confidence as she sat with her legs crossed beside Jay while iConnections CEO Ron Biscardi served as the event moderator.

SKKY Partners launched in September with the intention to invest in ‘growth-oriented, market-leading consumer and media companies.’

Along with being co-founders, Kim and Jay are also co-managing partners.

Keeping things in the family, the KUWTK alum’s mother Kris Jenner is a firm partner.

‘I’m excited to launch SKKY Partners to invest in the next generation of consumer brands, leveraging my experience founding and building global businesses and partnering with innovative companies to help them grow,’ Kim said in a September press release.

‘I look forward to working closely with Jay and our team to identify distinctive investment opportunities and build the firm’s portfolio of world-class companies for our investors.’

Kim’s co-founder Jay got his start at JP Morgan before becoming a 16-year veteran of the multinational investment firm, Carlyle Group Inc, which manages $376 billion worth of assets.

He famously backed Scooter Braun’s controversial purchase of pop star Taylor Swift’s master recordings in 2019. He has also invested in major brands like the streetwear giant Supreme and Dr.Dre’s line of wireless headphones, Beats By Dre.

Jay served as Carlyle’s global head of consumer in media and retail until his departure in August 2022.

According to WSJ, Jay is a close friend of the Kardashian-Jenner clan and reportedly pitched the private-equity firm idea to Kim and Kris in early 2022.

Though Jay is an industry veteran, Kim is no stranger to the world of business.

According to Forbes, Kim’s shapewear line SKIMS raised $240 million in January 2022 from firms led by the likes of billionaires Stephen Mandel and Josh Kushner.

And in less than a year, it doubled its valuation to $3.2 billion.

Kim launched SKIMS back in 2019 and his since ventured into active wear, loungewear and intimates.

She entered the skincare realm this year with SKKN by Kim, which serve as a vessel for the long-awaited reboot of her KKW Beauty makeup line.

Kim is at the top of her game and currently single following her tumultuous divorce from rapper Kanye West, 45. She filed for divorce in February 2021 and they were declared legally single last March.

In December, the former couple agreed to joint custody and ‘equal access’ to their four kids. Kim will receive $200,000 in child support monthly from the rapper.

Although the divorce is wrapped up, Kim recently confessed that it has been ‘really f***ing hard’ and that she’s done her best to shield their children from Kanye’s drama.

Since late last year, Kanye has been at center of controversy since launching online attacks at his ex-wife, her then-boyfriend Pete Davidson, Trevor Noah as well as the athletic wear giant Adidas early last year.

Things came to a head in September when Kanye controversially debuted a ‘White Lives Matter’ shirt during Paris Fashion Week that was followed by countless anti-semitic outbursts.

Adidas, Balenciaga and Gap – all of which worked closely with the hitmaker – soon made the decision to sever ties with Kanye.

The rapper recently tied the knot with Yeezy designer Bianca Censori. Despite the wedding ceremony, the union isn’t legal because the pair do not appear to have filed a marriage certificate, DailyMail.com reports. 

Over the weekend, Kanye was reportedly named a suspect in a battery investigation after he allegedly ripped a phone out of a woman’s hand and threw it.

The incident reportedly happened outside daughter North and son Saint’s basketball game in Los Angeles. Kim attended the game but was not involved in the dispute.
