Marc Andreessen, Ben Horowitz, Michel Del Buono, Molly O'Shea
Perennial, a multi-family office founded by Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz, serves a select group of principals and founders by employing professional investors rather than traditional service-oriented wealth managers. The firm addresses critical gaps in the wealth management industry, such as the misalignment of flat fee structures and the lack of tax optimization for high-tax jurisdictions, by offering customized asset allocation and in-house alternative investment teams. Through rigorous due diligence and strategic guidance on liquidity events like the potential SpaceX IPO, Perennial helps its clients navigate complex tax liabilities, diversify concentrated stock positions, and avoid the pitfalls of reinvesting directly into early-stage ventures without systematic analysis.
