Kajora Global Family Network · Member Invitation Kajora is proud to support House of Vanderbilt for one of the most extraordinary events of the fall season. On September 15, the iconic Vanderbilt Hall at Grand Central Terminal becomes the stage for a landmark runway show celebrating America’s 250th Anniversary. House of Vanderbilt — one of the most storied names in American history — returns to New York City with a production befitting the occasion. This is fashion, history,

Kajora Global Family Network · Council The rooms where the most important conversations happen don't build themselves. Someone has to find the venue. Someone has to know the speaker. Someone has to bring the audience that makes the room worth being in. Someone has to understand that the dinner after the panel is where the real conversation begins — and that the right table matters as much as the right topic. The Kajora Events & Experiences Council exists for those people. Wha

Kajora Daily · July 15, 2026 A new report from McKinsey estimates that less than 20% of family offices have meaningfully integrated AI into their operations — despite the fact that 78% of family office principals say AI is a top-five priority for the next 24 months. That gap — between stated priority and actual adoption — is not a technology problem. It is a trust problem. Family offices run on discretion. The data they hold — entity structures, beneficial ownership, investme

Which Wolf Are You Feeding This Summer? I opened the Kajora Spring Forum in April with a story. A grandfather tells his grandson about a battle — not on a battlefield, but inside every person. Two wolves. One feeds on fear, ego, and scarcity. The other on joy, generosity, and building. Which wolf wins? The one you feed. If you were in the room that morning, you know what followed. If you weren't, I shared the full keynote on LinkedIn — and I'd be honored if you read it: Which

I know someone who has fundamentally changed the way I think about what it means to show up for people. Her name is Joelle Paul-Cook. And she doesn't talk about generosity as a value. She practices it in ways most people wouldn't think to — and at hours most people wouldn't answer. She sponsors people she believes in. She takes over running companies when she sees something worth saving. She builds brands from the inside out — including Bad Mermaid, a mission-driven energy dr

Kajora Global brought members together for a remarkable evening at the Nasdaq MarketSite in Times Square, featuring a conversation with bestselling author and motivational speaker Chris Gardner.

Our Spring Forum brought together Kajora members for an evening of connection, conversation, and inspiration at the iconic Soho Grand Hotel.

The most valuable thing in the room is rarely the most expensive one. Every room I have ever been in has taught me that. But the first place to teach me was a barn — and watching the evolution of the horse show management company my mentor grew from a local barn in New York to what was considered, at its peak, the largest horse show management company in the world. After my first couple of years of horseback riding lessons, my birthday and Christmas lists simply repeated "a h

My parents made a mistake when I was 4 years old. They moved us to a house behind a horse barn. They didn't think it through. Because from the kitchen window you could see the field. The horses. The riders. The whole world I didn't belong to yet but couldn't stop watching. Every birthday. Every Christmas. One wish. Always the same. Years later they started us with lessons. My sister was 8. I was 10. School horses. Borrowed time on animals that belonged to everyone and no one.

For the founders, the family office leaders, and the next generation we are all committed to protecting. Life is the ultimate chess game. Some of you are already at the table. Already making moves. Already carrying people who depend on you getting it right. This is for you. And it's for the ones who know — somewhere quietly — that the game started without them. That the moves are being made. That ready is a decision, not a condition. Because the window to decide is shorter th

Family offices are finding us. The inbox never stops. LinkedIn makes me cringe. And yet — this week, I feel focused, grateful, and ready. Here's what I'm seeing in the market, and why the upbringing that shaped me is the most important infrastructure I have.

The numbers are striking. Women are set to control a significant and growing share of the generational wealth transfer currently underway. They are building companies, inheriting family enterprises, and stepping into family office leadership roles at a pace that would have been unrecognizable a generation ago. And yet the family office world — its events, its networks, its advisory structures, its language — has been remarkably slow to reflect that reality. That is what this

Wealth planning has never been more sophisticated. And yet the most important planning of all remains almost entirely unaddressed. Walk into any family office conversation and you will find extraordinary rigor around investment allocation, tax efficiency, estate structuring, and succession planning. Family offices exist precisely because the complexity of significant wealth demands dedicated, expert attention. But ask a room full of family office principals who their medical
