Masterclass for Family Offices
Why should investing in startups be a part of your portfolio?
Family Offices: A Growing Force in Startup Investments
In recent years, Family Offices worldwide have embraced a venture capital mindset, actively seeking out early-stage investment opportunities. This shift is driven by the allure of high growth potential and the desire to diversify portfolios. A significant number of Family Offices are now investing in startups through VC Funds and a few of them directly.

While this trend is pronounced globally, Indian Family Offices have been relatively slower to adopt this strategy. In contrast to their counterparts in the US, China, Japan, and Australia, Indian investors traditionally favour more established asset classes like listed stocks, real estate, and gold.

To unlock the full potential of India's startup ecosystem, it's crucial to mobilize the vast wealth held by Indian family offices, high-net-worth individuals (HNIs), and ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNIs). By channeling a portion of their investments towards early-stage ventures, these investors can fuel innovation, job creation, and economic growth within the country.

CII CIES in partnership with Chiratae Venture, is organising a series of masterclasses for Family offices with the theme: Why investing in startups should be a part of your portfolio. Join us as we take you on a journey of Science Behind Venture Investing.
