A source told the publication that the beauty entrepreneur received the sum to discuss her newly formed private equity firm SKKY Partners with her co-founder, seasoned businessman Jay Sammons, at the iConnections Global Alts conference on Tuesday at the Fountainbleu hotel.
The news outlet reached out to iConnections CEO Ron Biscardi to ask him to confirm the amount, but he declined to give a clear answer on the details of their deal with the 42-year-old reality star. He said, “We do not comment publicly [monetary] arrangement with loudspeakers.”
Allegedly each contestant paid $10,000 to hear the reality star and other financiers speak at the event.
According to reports, those in attendance for Kardashian’s panel reportedly filled the arranged hall and two additional overflow rooms, although some other attendees chose to take the boat tour rather than listen to her talk.

At the event, Kardashian shared the stage with financial industry heavyweights such as Cuban billionaire, Galaxy CEO Mike Novogratz, and Anthony “The Mooch” Scaramucci.
The SKIMS founder reportedly received a standing ovation when he took the stage to deliver his speech.
“He received a standing ovation when he came out on stage. It was standing room only where he spoke, with the crowd spilling into the hallway. We had more people in the overflow room where the video was streamed to accommodate the sellout crowd,” Biscardi told the publication.
The Chief Executive Officer also expressed his happiness with the audience’s solid support for the mother of four. Biscardi added, “I’m glad to see so much support for female fund managers in a male-dominated industry.”

In an interview with the publication at the time, Kardashian shared what she’s most excited about launching her own equity firm.
“The interesting part is to sit down with these founders and think about what their dreams are,” he said WSJ. “I want to support what it is, not change who they are in their DNA, but just support and take them to a different level.”
Recently He Lectured At Harvard
Last month, he gave a lecture at Harvard Business School, which seems to be a sure sign that more people are interested in what he has to offer in terms of guiding business-oriented people.
Kardashian took to Instagram to announce her trip to the school, saying that the students had been given an assignment to learn about her multi-million dollar clothing brand, SKIMS.
“I talked about our marketing, our challenges and our biggest wins,” he wrote of his lecture, which was for the class to move beyond the direct-to-consumer business model. “I’m very proud of Skims and the thought that it’s a course being studied at Harvard is crazy.”
He also described speaking at Harvard as “one of his bucket list dreams” and was quite happy to finally see it come true.
