Uniting together to invest and create a better future remains top of mind for leading global family offices and entrepreneurs, according to Sir Anthony Ritossa.  I’m a big believer that being able to help others is the greatest form of wealth, and through our summit platform we are seeing leading families around the world are increasingly embracing the concept of impactful philanthropy as an important component of the family legacy over generations. We see that philanthropy often wears several hats as there are opportunities to be philanthropic via donations of time, in-kind donations, trusted counsel and expertise – in addition to financial support. 

Sir Anthony supports various non-profits and has restored the eyesight of 400 individuals through his donations, including one individual who Sir Anthony supported financially that needed elective cancer treatment that proved successful. He is also passionate about ocean conservation, including re-generation of coral reefs in areas such as The Maldives. His entire family, including his son Hugo, is involved in the mission to fight climate change. 

One of the recent Ritossa Summits spotlighted Muvule, that gives Microloans to women in Uganda to help them grow their businesses and escape poverty. Family offices continue to show keen interest in the opportunity as a way to make a difference.

“Immeasurable love for family and community, and a constant healthy life balance is a path to success. I have found that individuals and companies that achieve success are those who are committed to living a life based on impact. I’m a firm believer in the power of family offices as an economic engine and a force for good,” says Sir Anthony.
