Avanti Capital, a private, multi-generational family office, has been featured in FO Pro: The Family Office Professional in a profile examining the firm’s evolution into a purpose-driven family office defined by shared governance, equal ownership, and long-term stewardship. The article highlights how the Khazzam family transformed Avanti from a practical holding vehicle into a more formalized family office designed to preserve capital, strengthen alignment, and support meaningful long-term impact.
Originally founded in 2017 by entrepreneur and investor Alexis Khazzam as Avanti Insieme, the firm’s original name reflects its family heritage and founding philosophy. In Italian, Avanti means “Forward,” and Avanti Insieme translates to “Forward, Together,” a phrase that continues to reflect the collaborative values at the center of the family office today. The firm now operates under the name Avanti Capital, a public-facing identity that retains the spirit of its original vision.
According to the FO Pro feature, Avanti Capital’s 2024 restructuring marked an important step in its development, establishing more defined governance and equal ownership among family partners while sharpening the firm’s focus on disciplined returns, shared responsibility, and long-term continuity. The profile also underscores the family’s belief that the process of building the office has strengthened not only the organization itself, but also the family behind it.
The feature also reflects Avanti Capital’s philanthropic history, including past work in education, entrepreneurship, and scientific research. As the firm continues to develop its foundation strategy, Nicholas “Nico” Khazzam serves as Chief Philanthropic Officer, leading Avanti’s philanthropic efforts going forward.
Avanti Capital continues to pursue a long-term approach grounded in thoughtful investing, family alignment, and a commitment to moving forward together.
