Anthony Ritossa, a figure both prominent and controversial in the global family office community, is actively orchestrating a comeback through his signature event series, the Global Family Office Investment Summit. Despite past allegations concerning misrepresentation and legal issues, Ritossa continues to position himself at the forefront of high-profile gatherings.
The 24th edition of the summit was held in March 2025 at the Trump International Beach Resort in Miami. The event attracted a diverse group of investors, entrepreneurs, and dignitaries, including former Ecuadorian President Rosalia Arteaga Serrano and Candice Beaumont, Chair of the Salsano Group family office. Notably, the summit also featured a performance by international singer Mary Millben, who delivered a rendition of the U.S. National Anthem. citeturn0search1turn0search8
Looking ahead, Ritossa is preparing for the 25th Global Family Office Investment Summit, scheduled for May 6–7, 2025, in Dubai. This milestone event will also celebrate a new strategic partnership between the Global Family Office Summit Series and the Lives Amplified Global Institution of World Leaders, aiming to enhance global philanthropic and investment initiatives.
However, Ritossa’s resurgence is not without skepticism. Reports have highlighted concerns about his past, including allegations of fabricating credentials and legal troubles. Some industry professionals have expressed caution, emphasizing the importance of due diligence when engaging with events associated with Ritossa.
As the upcoming summit in Dubai approaches, the family office community remains attentive, weighing the opportunities for collaboration against the backdrop of Ritossa’s contentious history.
