CENTRAL & EASTERN
EUROPEAN WEALTH
SUMMIT
"Coming 2025"
Organised by
The CEE Wealth Summit
The CEE Wealth Summit is making a comeback, and this year it promises to be even more exclusive than before. In order to create a truly immersive and impactful event, we have decided to restrict the number of attendees to 100.
The CEE Wealth Summit is a gathering of single family offices, private investors and family business owners & executives from Central and Eastern Europe. With a strong geographic focus it is our aim to build, maintain and strengthen relationships between players from the region and to facilitate business, investments and economic collaboration.
Eastern Europe has gone through an incredible transformation for the last 30 years and continues to do so. It is with great pleasure to witness this process, which comes with its own set of challenges for individuals and businesses alike. But with every challenge comes a new opportunity. And it is these opportunities we want to make visible to a carefully selected audience of investors and family offices.
Founder, Organiser and Co-host
Having a German father and a Czech mother, organising and hosting the CEE Wealth Summit is a particular pleasure and joy to me, as it allows me to unite my Central / Eastern European souls in an event.Having grown up with both cultures, I learned to leverage the benefits of each, but I also learned that there is a lot one side doesn’t know or understand about the other. Not knowing each other properly is counterproductive to business.
It is my respect and love for Eastern Europe and its people that led me to the decision to support family offices and businesses from there to connect to their peers while opening doors to those seeking partners and opportunities further afield. With Alex Schütz I found the best partner I could have wished for – based in the CEE hub Vienna and well-connected throughout Eastern Europe. And we share the same principles and excitement for the most exciting region in Europe.
I am looking forward to welcoming you to the next Central & Eastern European Wealth Summit in Vienna, co-hosted by Alex Schütz and his single family office
Yours Sincerely,
David Grammig

FAQ
Delegates are single family office principles, UHNWI’s, private investors and family business owners from Central and Eastern Europe and those with an interest in the regions participation.
This event is an exclusive gathering of wealth owners from the CEE region, hosted by an Austrian single family office. Both, the host and organiser, want to create a highly relevant experience for the families and takes their concerns into consideration. Participating families have the opportunity to actively influence the agenda according to their individual interests. We specifically created a questionnaire that allows families to tell us what they want to learn about. This makes the event also highly attractive for sponsors as the agenda topics correspond with the families’ feedback.
Delegate passes for the entire event including networking, all sessions and lunches & dinners come at EUR 1,900
All panels and interviews are conducted in English. In order to overcome a possible language barrier we advise family office delegates to attend with a trusted advisor to translate if necessary.
