The Family Office Association (“TFOA”) was founded in 2007, as a peer network for Single Family Offices. Over the years, members have met every month to exchange ideas, share best practice, and discuss a broad range of family office related issues. TFOA now includes some of the largest and wealthiest families in the world and has evolved into a tight network of trusted contemporaries. What distinguishes TFOA from the many other family office groups is that we’re a true peer network and are not looking to monetize our relationships. A high level of trust has been built up within the group, and we adhere to a strict code of conduct. No member contact information or email lists will ever be shared and members of the group are not actively marketing products or services to other members. The group is for education, networking, pooling diligence, selective co-investment, and a resource for family office professionals to share ideas, deal flow, and best practice.
We host a closed-door, annual symposium for family office principals and professionals, and convene a select number of private events for members to hear from world class speakers on a range of topics. We’ve been fortunate to have experts from exceptional organizations across a broad swath of industrial, commercial, financial, and non-profit sectors. And since TFOA is not a commercial business, we donate profits from our annual symposium towards student scholarships.
While we embrace growth as our global family office relationships multiply, we preserve close friendships between members by hosting small group events and building trust at the individual level.
TFOA has created a unique culture of belonging within our network that is supported by our Six Core Values. We care deeply about our highly curated community and the quality of our platform to provide members with a safe space for meaningful relationships to flourish.
We curate a world-class lineup of experts to share valuable insights on the latest developments ininvesting and family office management. Attendees benefit from leading industry research and networking with like-minded family office peers.
TFOA members receive world-class educational content and industry insights through our private and virtual programs featuring renowned speakers, high quality publications, and proprietorially sourced investment opportunities.
SERVE
The relationships formed in our community of single family offices are grounded in camaraderie and trust. TFOA maintains this unique culture by keeping our Six Core Values of Confidentiality, Professionalism, Non-Solicitation, Cooperation, Diversity and Trust at the forefront of everything we do.
We believe each member’s experience is personal within our community. We are highly selective when considering potential new family offices for membership to ensure every new member complements our existing group of like-minded peers. This ensures all members can develop lasting, cooperative relationships with each other.
