Services
Three tiers of advisory engagement, designed around family wealth and generational objectives.
Our practice is structured across three tiers reflecting the depth of strategic involvement each family requires. Families typically begin with Private Tuition and progress upwards as their ambitions and complexity grow. Every engagement is custom-scoped after a confidential discovery conversation.
Dynastic Advisory
Tier 3Multi-generational education strategy for families preparing the next generation to lead. School and university planning for 2–4 children, fully integrated with family-office succession objectives.
The highest tier of engagement. Dr Lin serves as a permanent strategic external advisor embedded within the family-office ecosystem. This tier includes all Tier 2 deliverables for 2–4 children, plus formal family-office integration and post-university succession-aligned human-capital roadmapping.

Who We Work With
Our practice is designed for families whose educational ambitions match their strategic sophistication. We work with a deliberately limited number of engagements to ensure depth of attention.
Founder Families
Entrepreneurs and business owners across technology, manufacturing, and innovation sectors who treat their children's education as a multi-generational investment rather than a series of school applications. Typical engagement: Tier 2 Admissions Architecture or Tier 3 Dynastic Advisory.
Family Offices
Single-family and multi-family offices managing cross-border wealth, legacy, and next-generation planning. Our role is the dedicated education-strategy function, integrated with the family's broader advisory ecosystem including legal, tax, and wealth counsel. Typical engagement: Tier 3 Dynastic Advisory with direct principal access.
Senior Executives and Professionals
C-suite leaders and senior professionals relocating between China and the UK who require strategic education planning as part of a broader career or business transition. Typical engagement: Tier 2 Admissions Architecture or Strategic Blueprint.
We work with families whose educational ambitions require and reward sustained strategic engagement over multiple years. Families seeking transactional school-placement services, short-term exam preparation, or generic education consultancy will find a better fit elsewhere.
