Capital Club Investing in Your Family's Future: The Importance of Simplifying Private Capital with Christian Grupp
How can purpose-built systems revolutionize family office management?
Today’s guest is Christian Grupp, CEO of Entole, a family office command center. We explore the intersection of family office management and technology and how they can create purpose-built systems rather than large monolithic platforms. We discuss the current state of technological solutions for family offices, with differing approaches being taken by different offices. We touch on the importance of a family constitution and the evolution of family offices toward hybrid or digital models. Join us as we dive into this fascinating topic and uncover how technology can help shape the future of family office management.
Christian has nearly two decades of experience with Family Offices and Technology through serving as an executive of his family’s MFO and driving the growth of businesses through people and technology systems.
