t’s no secret that family offices are among the largest consumers of luxury products and services, such as yachts, art, private aviation, collectibles, jewelry and much more. Interestingly, during the past five years that FON has been hosting events at art galleries, polo and other high-end luxury venues, we have attracted more family offices than many of the traditional wealth management conferences. While many of these events have been virtual in 2020, we’re slowly getting back to normal and hope to see everyone soon either online or in person. I hear over and over how difficult it is to connect with family offices, and we’re dedicated to making that possible for select companies with unique offerings. FON currently has over 200,000 members, including about 15,000 U.S. and global family offices with between $50-100 million net worth. We reach the top four percent of the global population in terms of income with an audience that has a median age of 54, including 72 percent male and 28 percent female. We see the average age decreasing as more and more families involve their children and grandchildren in the family business and decision-making process. If you have a product or service that’s a good fit for our families, I invite you to reach out to us.
As we continue to keep our pulse on the family office community, we’re dedicated to meeting the demands of our discriminating audience for news and features that impact their daily lives. Keeping up to date on the latest and greatest luxury goods and services is essential and we strive to offer magazine content that is interesting, entertaining and aspirational. I’m especially excited about Family Office Marketplace and hope that our readers will enjoy learning more in my Q&A included in this issue. As background, family offices can utilize our new Marketplace technology in several important ways. It’s a great way to buy, sell and/or rent luxury goods and services and learn what they have to offer to families in our network. Andrew Schneider Founder/ Publisher

Head to One of These
This Winter BY VICTORIA L. HOFFMAN
F
or those who dream of a white winter wonderland where snowcapped peaks and powdered trails beckon to you as they shout your name, here’s a glamorous list of the top places to visit this winter. Whether you’re looking to party like a rock star or spend quality time with your family or loved one, these resorts all have one thing in common – luxury. This word may mean something different to each person – your ski butler not only warming your boots, but actually delivering a hot toddy to you on that steep slope or perhaps it’s the chauffeur-driven Maybach taking your group to a celeb-filled nightclub. Then again maybe it’s simpler – a plethora of topnotch trails and high-tech ski lifts are all you need.
