Creators in 2025 are flipping the script. Instead of just taking brand deals or launching merch lines, many are becoming angel investors and VCs themselves.
MrBeast, Emma Chamberlain, and Marques Brownlee have all made strategic investments into startups focused on creator tech, Web3, and AI innovation.
In Europe, creators like Patricia Bright and Ali Abdaal are setting up micro-funds to support wellness apps, edtech platforms, and sustainable fashion brands.
This shift is about more than money—it’s about influence. By investing, creators can shape the platforms and technologies that define their futures.
For upcoming creators, understanding investment basics (equity, cap tables, SAFE notes) could be just as important as mastering TikTok trends.
The message for creators today: don’t just build your brand—build your portfolio.
