Financing the Future: How Family Offices Could be the Missing Piece for Unlocking Systemic Breakthroughs
Why does so much promising climate tech stall in the "valley of death"? Why is the current early-stage financing system failing female entrepreneurs? And what role can family offices — especially next-gen leaders — play in shifting these dynamics?
In an era of uncertainty, financing tomorrow with yesterday’s models is no longer an option. In this interactive roundtable, we’ll explore the deeper structural reasons behind these financing gaps and invite fresh thinking on how entrepreneurial, patient capital can be deployed differently — creatively, collaboratively, and with an eye on both impact and returns. Innovation deserves innovation.
Join fellow family office peers for an open, forward-looking conversation designed to spark ideas, build connections, and surface practical strategies for navigating one of the most urgent investment frontiers of our time – not just to do good, but to deliver strong, future-fit returns.
