The Future Family Office: Structure & Strategy

Grace will join the closing panel on 16 October at 11:40am, alongside fellow family office leaders and industry experts. The panel will look at how family offices can evolve to meet the demands of the next decade, from operating models and professionalisation to technology adoption, leadership and strategic planning.

Discussion will explore questions including:

• How is the role of the family office evolving beyond investment management?

• What operating model works best for modern family wealth, internal teams, outsourcing or external advisers?

• When does scale strengthen a family office, and when can it become a burden?

• How can family offices professionalise while maintaining their culture, alignment and agility?

• How is technology changing the way family offices operate, manage risk and make decisions?

The discussion will offer a practical look at what it takes to build a family office that is resilient, agile and prepared for the future.

World Family Office Forum | Asia 2026 brings together family principals, family office executives, investors and leading advisers for two days of insights, private discussion and meaningful connections.

15–16 October 2026 | The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong
