About

As the CEO of a Luxembourg-based Single Family Office managing approximately €200 million in diversified assets, I lead both our financial portfolio management (Private Equity, Hedge Funds,...) and our operational investments across three core sectors — industry, media & education, and real estate. Our Family Office combines the discipline of institutional portfolio allocation with the agility of entrepreneurial ownership. Through direct investments, private equity, and alternative strategies, we focus on long-term, sustainable value creation. With over 15 years of experience spanning finance, industrial operations, and strategic investment, I have structured and executed cross-border transactions in Europe and North America, always driven by three guiding principles: - Strategic capital allocation to preserve and grow family wealth across generations, - Operational excellence within our industrial, media, and education platforms, - Responsible ownership in real estate and real assets with a focus on sustainability and impact. At the intersection of finance and entrepreneurship, our mission is to build resilient businesses and ecosystems — investing in people, ideas, and industries that shape the future.
