The Aisher family

A creator of wealth since 1924.

The Aisher family began investing in 1924. A century later, it is still investing, now in its fourth generation. Along the way the family built an industrial group that, by 1999, employed 13,000 people across 59 countries. That experience spans generations, industries and economic cycles.

Today that entrepreneurial instinct drives Kinled, the family's privately owned Anglo-Austrian holding company. Kinled backs the scientists and founders turning research into commercial businesses in life sciences, digital technology and fintech. It takes an active hand in building each business. In 2023 it opened a Private Client Division so that eligible investors can join it.

Capital at risk. Early-stage, unlisted and venture capital investments are high risk and illiquid. You may lose all of the money you invest, and you may not be protected if something goes wrong. Some vehicles are unregulated, including Olipan. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Seek independent financial, legal and tax advice before investing.

Headline figures are company-reported and have not been independently verified. IPO and exit counts may overlap. Historical claims come from 2024 company documents. The €525M combined figure is the aggregate of independent partner funds' totals and is not assets managed by Kinled. Named companies are illustrative, and holdings, structures and availability can change.
