Petra Freddi

Petra Freddi serves as managing director for Global Wealth Perspectives, a new Milken Institute initiative, where she leads the Institute’s international strategy and engagement with high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and founders. She works with arts and cultural organizations, luxury brands and influential private networks on curating in-real-life experiences that strengthen the Institute’s convening power.

Over the past decade, she has expanded the Institute's global footprint from Asia-Pacific to Europe and, most recently, the Middle East. From London, she built and lead the Europe and Middle East team, driving its policy, research, and convening work across a global network of health, finance, and philanthropic leaders.

Before joining the Milken Institute, Freddi spent ten years in the financial sector, most recently with Apollo Management in Singapore. Earlier in her career, she held roles in private equity and equity research in London and began her professional journey at Goldman Sachs.

Freddi holds a master’s degree from HEC Paris Grande École and a second master’s from the University of Economics in Prague. A global citizen, she has lived in Prague, Paris, London, Hong Kong, and Singapore and is fluent in six languages.
