Olympic hero Michael Phelps looks to dip his toes in tech
Tech entrepreneurship would mark a big change for Phelps, whose business experience to date consists mostly of endorsement deals with Under Armour, Visa and Wheaties.
In an advertising campaign that began last month, he became pitchman for the computer chipmaker Intel.
What else might the swimmer, who won 28 medals in five Olympics, do in the tech industry?
Phelps wouldn't say, beyond noting that he isn't ready to start his own investment fund, like retired Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant did earlier this summer with entrepreneur Jeff Stibel.
In September, former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling settled a long running legal dispute with the state of Rhode Island.
