We are pleased to welcome Ann Cooley, CEO & Founder of Pacific Hawk Group, as a speaker at the 7th Annual World Family Office Forum Asia, taking place on 15–16 October 2026 at The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong.
Ann will join the panel discussion “Family Legacy: From Principles to Practice” on 16 October at 9:00 AM HKT, exploring how families can translate their values and principles into practical approaches to succession, governance and long-term continuity.
With experience spanning wealth management, law, succession planning and family mediation, Ann works with ultra-high-net-worth families on complex intergenerational and family matters. Her work focuses on helping families navigate sensitive issues while protecting relationships, preserving wealth and building a lasting family legacy.
Ann is the CEO of Cooley Family Office and Founder of Pacific Hawk Group, which she established in Hong Kong in 1997. She holds a Juris Doctorate from The Chinese University of Hong Kong and is a CFP®, accredited Family Mediator with HKIAC, and Collaborative Practitioner with HKCPG.
Her multidisciplinary perspective brings together financial, legal and interpersonal considerations, reflecting an important reality for family offices: successful succession is not only about transferring wealth, but also about preparing people, relationships and values for the generations that follow.
We look forward to welcoming Ann to WFOF Asia 2026 and to the conversation on what it takes to turn family legacy from principle into practice.
