Freedom Capital Markets hosted our Summer Family Office Summit last week in beautiful Montauk, New York. Thanks to our amazing speaker lineup, all of the family office attendees, and our sponsors. We started the day with an economic outlook overview, covered investments in Sports/Media/Entertainment, Tech & Innovation, and Alternatives. In addition to our sector topics, a panel of Family Offices spoke about structuring Co-Investments and Club Deals with other families, and we rounded out the day learning about how family offices can encourage and enhance board diversity and inclusivity at the portfolio level. Our luncheon keynote, Daphna Ziman, shared her passion for ways we can all make the world a better place, specifically around conscious media and tools for eradicating sex trafficking.   Of course, there was plenty of time for cocktails, socializing, and networking!   Throughout history, sailors and yacht club members have convened at the Montauk Yacht Club to share nautical expertise, exchange tales of their journeys, and forge bonds that transcend borders. In the same spirit, our summit has brought together talent from diverse backgrounds, united by a shared passion for finance, investment, and capital markets. Our time spent together was not solely about financial strategies and market insights—it was about exchanging experiences, understanding different perspectives, and building a strong network of professionals who can lean on each other for support and guidance.   #FamilyOffice #Clubdeals #Coininvestments #Montauk  #FinanceLeadership #Collaboration #EducationAndGrowth #BuildingBonds #FreedomCapitalMarkets Robert Wotczak Emilia Manesis Patricia McCarron Emma Link Duane Penfold

Now, it’s only fair to pay a tribute to the most renown mayor - ahem, Bourgmestre de la ville de Luxembourg – from Bourgmeisterin to the true burgermeister😁  François Scheffer was a man who wore way to many hats for one lifetime, but did it so skilfully that after he passed away, the city flooded the streets to say the last goodbye as a testament to the impact he had on the lives of many.  To be fair, for those years, this was pretty impressive: I like to think that this manifestation of the public attitude was quite genuine as at the time it should’ve taken more effort to create a blueprint than it does now.  As I was reading the sources, the first impression was superficial – one just can’t do this many things, some of them at once! But then I thought, well, obviously, the scope of work was dramatically different from what public servants have these days, which hints on the fact that Scheffer was probably not feeling fulfilled enough doing just 1 gig.  I reckon that was an exemplar of a man who cared about his community, about making a long lasting impact, and tried to pay it forward each time he’d get a chance – something that is not that common even now, 200 years down the line.  But that’s exactly what it takes to make a place where you grow your roots a home – imagine having 5 such Scheffers? 10? 100? I bet even after the 2nd one people would stop calling Luxembourg boring. Which brings me back to my everlasting point – the responsibility of having an opportunity to live a fulfilled life lies entirely on the shoulders of the people themselves. It’s always a game of give and take: you have to create value to get the value back. But just sitting there waiting for life to happen will only get you this far. Give to the place and watch it start giving you back😉 Check out the full story on the website (https://lnkd.in/gs4sPf5a), don’t forget to sign up to the newsletter to receive new stories like hot potatoes coming straight out of the pen, and hit that 'Subscribe' button!😉 📸: Wiki #FrancoisSchefferLegacy #LuxembourgHero #MayoralMarvel #AStellarCareer #LuxembourgCityHistory #EpicJourney #PublicServiceChampion #SecretSocieties #UrbanPlanningGuru #Bourgmeisterin

Come and get involved. What are your thoughts, feelings and insights as an HR professional? There is so much happening in this sector - from GenAI to Ageism (and everything in between).

This is why we do what we do. Then we have the 'How do we do it' part and maybe the most important part is the Single Point Of Contact approach, where the assignee have one and the same contact throughout the relocation process. You talk to one and the same consultant both for the homefinding, the immigration and the school search. It builds trust, and trust reduces stress and friction. This greatly increases the employee experience, and as a result you have a happy assignee who stays happy and productive for the entire assignment. And as a not insigificant bonus, you get a happy family along with them.
