Family offices account for almost a third of all capital invested in startups globally, yet accessing these opportunities remains difficult for many founders.

For the first time, the Spark Investment Network is holding a forum to provide capital raising insights from prominent Australian family offices that have and are investing in local startups – presented in partnership with Herbert Smith Freehills and boutique private wealth group, Ethium Wealth on Tuesday 28th May, in person in Sydney.

You will be advised of the participants on this eye-opening family office panel when your invitation is confirmed. 

The panelists include:

• A CIO of a large Australian family office; and
• A third-generation Principal of a renowned Australian family office that commenced in engineering and construction.

Both of these family offices are actively investing both directly and through venture fund managers, and have invested in startups including Unyoked, Blackbird, Airtasker and Canva.
