The name Ohana comes from the Hawaiian concept of an extended family. One you choose. We chose it deliberately, as a working principle for how we and our partners operate: long-term relationships built on trust, alignment, and shared responsibility.
We are operators and investors by background, with experience building and scaling businesses over long time horizons. We approach each investment as a partnership, combining capital with execution expertise where it adds value.

Ohana’s Connected Capital model is built around a three-pillar structure designed to reduce risk at every stage of an investment. By aligning capital, advisory insight, and execution support, we help Family Offices structure investments with greater clarity and long-term conviction.
Ohana combines capital deployment with execution expertise, engaging operators selectively and only when it adds value. This disciplined approach ensures the right level of support is applied at the right time, helping family offices and founders reduce risk and move through investment stages with greater clarity.


Ohana is an invitation-only investment ecosystem designed to replace siloed investing with shared conviction. We bring together like-minded family offices to co-source, co-underwrite, and co-invest in high-conviction private market opportunities while preserving full independence, control, and discretion.

We understand the journey of building enduring businesses because we are operators ourselves. Ohana provides patient, flexible capital designed for founders and management teams focused on long-term value, not short-term outcomes.
Our goal is simple: help exceptional businesses scale thoughtfully, preserve independence, and build value that lasts across generations.
We partner selectively with businesses where conviction runs deeper than a transaction: where the story, the operating fundamentals, and the long-term vision matter. Through our Connected Capital approach, founders gain access to aligned capital, experienced operators, and a trusted network that supports execution through complexity and growth.

Flexible structures designed to support long-term outcomes
Ohana Operators is an embedded network of experienced executives and GTM leaders who support portfolio companies at critical moments of scale. Rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all operating model, Operators engage selectively, bringing hands-on expertise where gaps exist and stepping back when it does not.
This flexible, stage-aligned support helps founders translate capital into durable execution, reduce operational risk, and accelerate value creation without long-term payroll commitments or loss of control.
