The future will bring transformative changes to families, their enterprises, family offices, and wealth advisors. Transformation will be structural, philosophical and cultural, resulting in a paradigm shift that better balances managing the family’s financial capital and nurturing its other capitals—especially the well-being of its members.

Time is our most precious, finite, and versatile resource. Family office industry stakeholders are reevaluating their relationship with time—making meaningful behavioral changes to maximize their “return on invested time.” Powerful and practical tools—some borrowed from the field of investment management—can help maximize return on this scarce and treasured asset.
We are excited to bring you FOX’s 2024 Foresight. As FOX turns 35, join us in exploring a range of highly consequential themes shaping the next 35 years and beyond. It is our hope the topics, which originated from families, thought leaders, practitioners, and the FOX team, will stimulate your thinking and inform your decisions and actions over the coming months. 2024 FOX Foresight is presented in 9 chapters:
Families are working hard to juggle the competing demands of family and enterprise. This session explore s a multitude of dynamics coming at both systems simultaneously: generational shifts happening faster and with greater consequence; AI and climate change—both with the potential to alter the human experience; the rise of women’s wealth ownership and its impact in both the family and the enterprise, just to preview a few of the big waves Sara and Joline will tackle.
For nearly 40 years, the pioneers of the family wealth profession have been working with family leaders and family office executives to help their families manage and grow their enterprises, strengthen their family systems and well-being, and deliver a positive impact on their communities and the world. For the first time ever, FOX will gather on the same stage the five most prominent and iconic founders of the family wealth field.
Please join us for a continuation of our conversation with the Industry Founders panel.

The fundamental question – “Will the family live in the plan?” – that Jay Hughes, Mary Duke, and Stacy Allred are asking in their latest research and upcoming book offers a cautionary story for both families and their top advisors. Without the appropriate focus on the family’s qualitative capital, and most importantly, their human capital, the plans and structures families have been investing in to preserve and grow their financial capital will likely be rejected by the future generations who were not engaged or consulted when the plans were made.
FOX has identified the cultivation of Human Capital as a key element of multi-generational success for business-owning families and other Family Offices that are focused on continuity, succession, and continual growth of family assets. The Frisbie Group in Palm Beach was originally founded by three brothers investing in a single rental property in Boston, Massachusetts while in college. It has since grown to involve nearly a dozen family members working side by side with external employees to focus on transformational residential and community development projects.
