Going back in time when certain pioneers like the Rothschilds, Henry Ford, J.P. Morgan, Rockefeller and others transformed the world in many ways while also paving the way for opportunities in the future not only from an investment perspective, but also when it comes to family offices and how they operate-making critical decisions in the moment.

Looking at executing on key decisions in the moment and capturing timely actionable data/insights to power such, it should come as no surprise that family offices are relying on AI now whether directly or indirectly (third-parties implementing it) and also why they’re hungry to invest in AI more. We predict an even bigger spike in 2026, including large investments in quantum computing which we’ve covered in previous posts.

Going back to the core of this post, why are family offices interested in allocating their capital for AI/tech companies versus safer, more conventional investments of the past? And it really comes down to a few things, including one in particular: If you have the ability to understand where the future is headed and can utilize your capital to gain an edge by investing in that tech you’ll be increasing the probabilities of favorable outcomes/winning in the end.

Additionally, aside from the investment and potential returns from a monetary perspective, what are you learning about the big picture that will help you continue to thrive as a leader and ultimately win in the end? It all boils down to experience and having the clarity to see what’s around the next turn. And that’s what we do.
