Founded 2019 · By Invitation Only
We are not a conference series. We are not a deal platform. We are a trusted room — deliberately intimate, carefully curated, and designed to generate the kind of frank conversation that only happens among peers who share a genuine culture of discretion.
"Every presenter is positively conditioned to lead with thought leadership, not commercial agenda. The room is a space for shared exploration — not sales. This is what our members protect, and what makes membership meaningful."
Founding Principle · Asian FutureWho We Are
Asian Future is the leading private capital community for family office executives and principals focused on the forces shaping Asia's future and its impact on the world. We are global in reach but Asia in perspective — connecting those who understand that the Asian century is already underway.
Since our founding event in Hong Kong in 2019, we have hosted more than 30 gatherings across Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, London and Sydney. Rob Garrett co-hosted the PWN Asia Family Office Congress (Singapore, November 2025) and chairs a Tiger 21 peer group, placing Asian Future at the very centre of the global family office peer community.
Our network is not a database. It is built on trust — and it cannot be replicated by capital alone.
Two decades of senior engagement with Asian and global family offices. Principals who pick up the phone because the relationship is real — not because of a CRM entry.
This is our founding principle and our most protected asset. Every gathering is a space for shared exploration. Commercial agendas are left at the door.
We don't organise events. We curate conversations around themes that matter — the Asian consumer, private capital, climate, technology and geopolitical shifts.
Prior career in family office advisory provides deep institutional knowledge of how principals think, decide and allocate — across generations and across borders.
Advisory Council
A community led by family office principals and professionals for engagement with appropriate, vetted and engaged peers.
Asian Future is underpinned by Family Principals, Entrepreneurs and Executives who act as an advisory council. These supporters span Asia, and mandates reflecting multi-generational wealth ownership and stewardship, alongside entrepreneurial wealth creation, and the entrepreneurial endeavour of establishing family offices for single families and multiple families — and the multitude of skills and experience required to facilitate this stewardship and structural build successfully.
Principals with deep experience navigating the transition of family wealth across generations — preserving capital, values and legacy.
Founders and operators who have built significant businesses across Asia — bringing firsthand understanding of growth, risk and capital deployment.
Experienced practitioners in the establishment and operation of SFOs and MFOs — spanning governance, investment, compliance and succession.
A council that spans India, Japan, Korea, MENA, Australia and Singapore — reflecting the breadth of Asian capital and the relationships that matter.
Membership
Asian Future is transitioning from informal community to structured membership platform. Membership is by invitation and application. Tiers reflect the different ways principals, executives, MFOs and a very limited cohort of service providers engage — benchmarked against Tiger 21 ($51,500 / year) and AYU (from £600/year). Asian Future sits deliberately in the premium-but-accessible middle — below Tiger 21, accessible to serious principals.
Service Provider membership is available at $20,000 / year and is strictly capped at 10% of community to preserve the peer-to-peer character of the room. No roundtable access — selected events only. Broader access via the Partnership programme.
Year 1 only. Rate locked for life — the most valuable entry point into Asian Future.
For family office principals — the core membership tier of the Asian Future community.
For SFO UBOs and senior allocators — full programme access and priority congress seating.
3 rotating seats per year — for MFO principals and senior professionals serving clients with meaningful Asian exposure.
Forthcoming Events
Every Asian Future event is intimate by design, thematic by purpose and off-record by rule. We do not host conferences. We convene the right people around the right question — and let the conversation do the work.
Singapore has emerged as the world's most compelling wealth structuring hub — zero capital gains tax, MAS regulatory clarity, Variable Capital Company structures and unmatched access to Southeast Asia's growth engines. This private gathering brings together London-based family offices, UHNWIs and senior executives with a connection to Singapore and Asia to explore what that means in practice — for capital, for structure, and for the families making these decisions now.
