At this Family Office Networks event, The IDI Group hosted a select group of family offices at an invitation-only cocktail reception. They presented a firm update as well as an overview of one of IDI’s exciting portfolio companies, GEENNE https://geenee.me/.

Geenee is changing the way affluent consumers brand engage with their customers using mobile image recognition and augmented reality technology. As a trusted partner for brands such as Warner Brothers, Miller Life, Unity and JCDecaux, Geenne has achieved significant traction. The Company’s technology is patented, test and launched in the media e-commerce, advertising, and retail industries. Geenee would be a logical acquisition target for strategic buyers and related industries.

Family Office Networks and their unique business concept has been around for centuries, allowing us to perfect wealth management and financial management for extremely wealthy individuals worldwide. The present-day Family Office Networks was first incorporated in the 19th century and includes some of the most renown financial service providers in the industry, like J.P Morgan. Interestingly, J.P Morgan was first started as a single-family office under the House of Morgan. Because of the success rate of the Family Office Networks, the Rockefellers established their own family office in 1982, which is still in business to this very day. The main objective of the family offices is to maintain and protect families that have large fortunes, trusts, and successful family-owned businesses. In addition, we offer our members effective and efficient ways to manage family fortunes through specific financial investments and charitable donations, while ensuring confidentiality, risk management consolidation, and transparency. Family Office Networks offer two types of family offices for our members, a Single Family Office (SFO) and a Multi-Family Office (MFO).

Family Office Networks hosts many networking events throughout the year through our local associations, including mixers, symposiums, cocktail receptions, polo, golf outings, poker tournaments, conferences, luncheons, cigar parties, fashion shows, caviar tastings, yacht parties, and more. In these intimate settings, families feel comfortable sharing ideas and expanding their network while giving back to the community.

Ultimately, family offices rely on their longevity through ensuring wealth preservation. The difficulty of securing market returns in recent years has led to some tension in this respect. Furthermore, during generational transitions, family office structures can be tested, often to the point of destruction, as the next generation presses for different goals and objectives to manage the family’s wealth. Family Office Networks is dedicated to offering substantial families access to stellar investment opportunities in areas such as real estate, venture capital, private equity, and hedge funds.

Common Threadz Fundraising Gala Raises $35,000 – At Essex County Country Club, NJ – 10/8/16

11/10/2016 | Comments: 0 | Posted by: Madavedev | In: Updates

On October 8, 2016, Common Threadz hosted a Fund Raiser for the who’s who in Real Estate and over 100 congregated to support fund raising efforts for the Children of Tanzania at the prestigious Essex County Country Club. This Club was founded in May 1887, and is the oldest club in the State of NJ, and the 6th oldest in the country. The night was a huge success for this worthy charity raising $35,000 to support the building of a new school for the children scheduled in 2018.

Ravi Reddy, the Executive Director of Common Threadz hosted the evening, and talked about his own father who was illiterate until his teens, came to the United Stated and received a PHD from Michigan State University a few years later. His love and importance of education was passed onto Ravi, and many of his other family members, and how education plays an important role in living a productive and successful life, hence Common Threadz was born in 2005.

Evening Highlights included: Key Note Speeches: Ravi Reddy, Executive Director; Educator Dr. Donna Gunn, The Founder of Africa Promise Village. Ms. Gunn told us all the story of how she visited with other retired teachers Tanzania and was exposed to the children’s misfortunes, and poverty stating, “some never ever washed their face as they had no water, and eat 1/3 of a cup of grain a day, and maybe a glass of milk 3 times a week”; Former NFL Full Back and Philanthropist Tony Richardson attended in support, and noted as their newest board member, Robert McCloud, The McCloud Group captivated us all with his hear felt support, and was instrumental securing the Essex County Country Club as venue host, and brought in many supporting contributors. While all up on stage, they encouraged many to donate what ever they can, and awarded a balloon for a $1,000 donation. A mom went up first with her two daughters who were Girl Scouts, and instead of keeping the money they earned from selling cookies the two girls graciously donated each together $500 for a total $1,000 and received the first balloon. This paved the way for many more to jump up on stage in support donating $1,000 for their very own balloon. Madison Avenue Agency, with the support of Renovation Angel, the leading luxury kitchen renovation company brought in renowned photographer, Griffin Shapiro who exhibited and sold several frame photographs works with partial proceeds going to the charity. Billy Fazio, Mortgage Loan Originator NMLS #330460 at HomeBridge Financial Services bought the first photograph of the evening, and also contributed to the worthy cause. These works included at the beach in Montauk, and captivating Manhattan skylines, and awarding Dr. Gunn a Manhattan skyline framed work to bring back home, and last, but certainly not least Country Music sensation, KR WOOD kept us all musically entertained singing and walking the room with violinist support. If this was not enough, there was an open bar, appetizers, carving, salad and pasta stations for all to enjoy.
