Four-time Grand Slam singles champion Naomi Osaka is making money moves this year with Hana Kuma , the media production company she co-founded with agent and SVP Stuart Duguid. Today, the company announced it launched a new fundraising round with investors Disruptive Acquisition Corp, Epic Games, Fenway Sports, Group, The Kinoshita Group and The SpringHill Company — which helped incubate the business less than a year ago. It raised $5 million in the spinoff. “You know, there was never any grand plan of we’ll spend X amount of time under the SpringHill umbrella, and then we’ll go and do it ourselves,” Duguid told The Hollywood Reporter . “It just happened very organically and naturally, and it came to the point where we decided it was time to raise financing, build out the business and hire more people and have a more robust team and a more robust business plan.”
