How to use this list

  1. 1

    Warm path first. Look each name up on LinkedIn and check who you know in common. An intro from someone they trust beats the best cold email you will ever write.

  2. 2

    One line on why them. Family offices invest their own money and nobody makes them answer. Name something they backed, wrote or said that connects to what you build.

  3. 3

    Ask for 20 minutes, not money. The first email asks for a call. Keep it short, link the deck, and make it easy to say yes to a date.

  4. 4

    Follow up once. A week later, one short note with something new: a customer, a number, a hire. Then let it go and move to the next name.

How we built it: Researched by hand on 7 October 2026 from each institution's own team page, org chart or official release. Some team pages do not say who covers venture specifically; each row links to its source so you can check before writing.

Before you email any of them: score your deck free.

Of 2,104 decks we have scored, only 5.3% clear 80. Traction is where most lose points. Find out where yours stands in a few minutes.
