Battery Global Advisors

Battery Global Advisors

Battery Global Advisors was established in 2006 by John O'Connor. Its initial mandate centered on stewarding the personal wealth of Richard Frisbie, founder of Battery Ventures, and other venture partners. The firm remains headquartered in Boston. Deployment spans public markets, private equity, hedge funds, private credit, infrastructure, intellectual property royalties, and direct real estate. Confirmed holdings include electricity trading positions, pharmaceutical royalties, a spot Bitcoin ETF allocation, and iShares Gold Trust. Real estate assets comprise 499 President Street in Gowanus, Alexander Crossing in Yonkers, Sarasota Luxury Apartments, EVO Englewood, The Lucy in Jersey City, Parmer Gateway in Austin, and Urban East Phase I. Geographic reach covers North America and the Middle East & Central Asia, with an Anan Data Centers portfolio in Israel. The firm participates in direct co-investments, SPVs, fund-of-funds commitments, and joint ventures such as those with The Brodsky Organization and Avery Hall Investments. The team manages $6.9 billion. Additional offices are not disclosed. Adjacent vehicles include the Crotty Family Foundation, Frisbie Family Foundation, and Frisbie Legacy Foundation. BGA maintains memberships in 100 Women in Finance, the Palm Beach Hedge Fund Association, and the Boston Foundation Professional Advisors Network. No operational events from the last 24 months appear in available records. Battery Global Advisors operates with a hybrid structure that combines family-office services for a concentrated group of technology entrepreneurs with direct participation in real-asset developments and royalties. This model ties investment decisions to the principals' venture-capital origins while maintaining separate governance for philanthropic entities.
