Why Private Wealth?
The investment opportunities in the innovative technology world are being recognized more and more by next generations of wealthy families and their single family office representatives. They are more willing to explore innovative investment opportunities that are far from the family's core business than former generations. They understand the exciting opportunities that lie within the technology sectors and the wealth that is created there and are constantly seeking to diversify their portfolios.
Unlike traditional institutional investors, private wealth and single family offices are uniquely positioned to invest in life science. In part due to their freedom of cross-sector investments, company stages, growth perspective and market cap as well as not being restricted like institutions to specific holding periods due to a fund's timeline or structure. They are more open to taking risks than are funds. Some family offices see this as an exciting adventure, which we can even put under the term - Passion Investing. With flexibility, patience and resources, private wealth comprises the ideal long-term investor base.
