In a world marked by complex geopolitical tensions, rapid technological change, and growing social challenges, a new institution is quietly forging a path toward practical collaboration: Abraham House. Founded in January 2025 during the World Economic Forum in Davos, this organization is less a traditional think tank or charity, and more a platform where diverse leaders—from heads of state to family offices and cultural innovators—converge to advance a vision of inclusive prosperity and peace.
Abraham House draws its inspiration from a historic precedent: the Abraham Accords. Brokered under the Trump administration, these landmark agreements broke new ground in Middle East diplomacy by fostering unprecedented cooperation between Israel and several Arab nations. But where the Accords focused on diplomacy, Abraham House seeks to embed their principles into tangible projects that span sectors and geographies, uniting private capital, social entrepreneurship, and impact leadership to foster stability through shared economic opportunity.
In its first four months, Abraham House has rapidly become a respected convening force, engaging over 50 global leaders at the World Economic Forum and building momentum within the family business community. These families often steward wealth across generations and manage philanthropic efforts through dedicated offices, increasingly seeking platforms that address today’s geopolitical and social complexities with both agility and purpose.
Among its early supporters are notable families and individuals such as the Dawood family, the Motwani family, Jeremy Coller, and others whose involvement signals growing confidence in Abraham House’s approach. The organization operates both as a U.S. 501(c)(3) nonprofit and a UK charity, leveraging its affiliation with Kingdom Network to integrate into high-profile global forums—shaping agendas and driving measurable outcomes.
At its core, Abraham House is focused on areas where economic growth and peace intersect: financial inclusion, education, entrepreneurship, digital identity, and cultural exchange. Its initiatives include:
- Job creation through scalable, purpose-driven ventures.
- Education innovations, including a values-based school in the UK designed to prepare students for a rapidly evolving AI-driven economy.
- Digital identity via the Abraham ID project, developed with NASDAQ-listed KeyWise, to broaden financial access for underserved populations.
- Financial literacy through the Global Campaign for Financial Literacy, aiming to reach one billion people.
Beyond formal summits, Abraham House invests in building community through cultural initiatives like the Global Friday Night Gathering Series—intimate dinners fostering authentic dialogue among diverse stakeholders, from business leaders to artists. The series promotes grassroots connection as a catalyst for understanding and collaboration, with plans to expand globally through an easy-to-use toolkit and real-time mapping of events.
The organization’s founder, Daniel Shakhani, brings a blend of finance and social innovation experience. Formerly at Goldman Sachs and a longtime family trust manager overseeing over 70 companies, Shakhani co-founded Salary Finance in the UK, a financial inclusion platform backed by major global institutions and recognized as a Harvard Business School case study. His background also includes collaboration with prominent innovators like the Musk family.
Jennifer de Broglie, co-founder of Abraham House, complements this with a heritage steeped in diplomacy and interfaith dialogue, bridging the worlds of global finance, culture, and faith to create a platform that resonates across sectors and continents.
Looking ahead, Abraham House plans a Summer 2025 Summit aboard a cruise ship, bringing together leaders from diplomacy, AI, music, faith, and impact investing to explore new frontiers in global cooperation.
While still young and agile, Abraham House represents a novel approach to peacebuilding and impact investing—one that moves beyond dialogue to action, connecting wealth, innovation, and culture in pursuit of stability and shared prosperity.
For family offices and impact investors interested in legacy beyond capital, Abraham House offers a compelling model of how global leadership can catalyze systems change grounded in economic opportunity and mutual understanding.
In a fragmented world, Abraham House may serve as a quiet yet influential force—reminding us that peace and prosperity are achievable through collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to shared values.
