WHY THIS MATTERS: Family offices now control trillions in private capital globally and are becoming increasingly active across venture capital, private equity, private credit, real estate and digital assets. Yet despite their growing influence, the infrastructure connecting family offices with funds and founders remains fragmented and inefficient. The traditional capital introduction model is heavily relationship-driven, opaque and time-consuming. Family offices are often inundated with unsolicited pitches, while fund managers and founders struggle to identify which investors have genuine mandate alignment. The result is wasted time, poor signal-to-noise ratios and missed opportunities on both sides. AYU, the global private members’ community…

Circle Internet Group (NYSE:CRCL) is preparing to launch a native token for its Arc Network. The company plans to shift Arc toward a proof-of-stake model with community governance. The roadmap includes work on quantum-resistant infrastructure for the network. Circle is best known for its role in stablecoin infrastructure, and Arc Network sits at the intersection of payments, blockchain tooling, and developer platforms. By adding a native token to Arc, NYSE:CRCL is moving further into programmable blockchain territory where utility tokens, staking, and on chain participation can all play a role. For readers tracking the broader digital asset space, this touches…

In my days as an international cooperation consultant in South America, I led a team to study the massive public investments made in traditional infrastructure for Bolivia: oil, transportation, agriculture, etc. Looking at decades of projects, bilaterally and multilaterally backed, I was dismayed to find any transformative returns on most such investments. Yet, a few years thereafter, private investments in mobile phone infrastructure not only revolutionized communications, but they enabled entire nations to leapfrog traditional landline infrastructure, massively empowering individual agency. In 2025, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised to deliver a similar transformative impact, which could unlock new dimensions of…

Blackstone Inc. (NYSE:BX) was one of the stocks on Jim Cramer’s recent Mad Money game plan. Cramer said the fear was unfounded and that the fund’s assets are not problematic. I want to hear from Blackstone because it has a private credit fund that got hit by big redemptions. I want to hear more about how that fund’s doing since employees bought shares in it. How are they doing? They should be pretty joyous. The answer’s going to be pretty… good because there weren’t a lot of issues with the assets in the fund to begin with. It was just…

How can we close employment and income gaps in Inuit Nunangat? Français   •   March 27, 2020 Canada’s North is booming. But not all in the North are seeing benefits. In Canada, there are consistent gaps in both employment and income between Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations. These gaps aren’t uniform, either. Between on-reserve First Nations, off-reserve First Nations, Inuit, and Métis, as well as between men and women, noticeable differences exist. This is holding back economic growth and hurting economic reconciliation. And despite Canada’s North leading the country in economic growth, these disparities are most acute for Inuit in…

Eric Jackson might not get the same level of coverage as other high-profile hedge fund managers, but, as founder of EMJ Capital, Jackson has built a reputation for discovering asymmetric compounders before other analysts on Wall Street. Most famously, Jackson made a bullish bet on Carvana stock when it traded for just $3.50. Carvana later surged over 100x and reached $413 per share. Last summer, Jackson was at it again. He went long on Opendoor Technologies when it traded as a penny stock, only to see it run up to about $10. His latest bull call is Dave (DAVE +7.62%),…
