Julie Wainwright, Founder and CEO of The RealReal
Julie Wainwright is an e-commerce pioneer who founded The RealReal in 2011, bringing authenticated luxury consignment online. She has changed the way people buy and sell high-end luxury across all categories -- from men's and women's clothing to home and art to fine jewelry and watches. Julie took The RealReal public in 2019 having built a membership of millions and selling millions of items to date. In addition, Julie is pioneering sustainability in the luxury space by keeping items in circulation and partnering with brands, like Gucci, Stella McCartney and Burberry, to promote a circular future for fashion. She's one to push the fold on innovation and it's not gone unnoticed – she's been recognized by Entrepreneur Magazine as one of the "Most Daring Entrepreneurs" and Fast Company as "Most Creative People" to name a couple.
