Thomas Olek: A German Self-Made Millionaire's Leap to Miami

Successful entrepreneur and stock market expert Thomas Olek ("King of German Office Real Estate") is reorienting his career: The 56-year-old has relocated to Miami, where he founded Olek Capital Inc. in 2024. The family office, with an estimated liquid assets of over €350 million, supports high-growth companies in Europe and the US with IPOs from its base in Florida - with a particular focus on impact investments.

From Germany to Miami: Why Thomas Olek is relocating his investment business to the USA

Olek has more than three decades of experience in capital and real estate markets. He has placed around €60 billion of investor capital in IPOs and, together with international investors, has invested over €30 billion in office real estate. His best-known projects include the Opernturm and Westend Carré in Frankfurt and the Skyline Tower in Munich.

With the takeover of the struggling Publity AG in 2003 and its subsequent listing on the stock exchange in 2015, he developed one of the largest office real estate portfolios in Germany. In 2014, he was also the first provider in Germany to launch a BaFin-approved public AIF for office real estate, thus opening up access to a segment that had previously been dominated by institutional investors.
After selling his entire office real estate portfolio between 2022 and 2024, most recently his majority stake in DN Deutsche Nachhaltigkeit AG to a Swiss insurance group, Olek is now steering the next phase of his entrepreneurial career from Miami.

Olek Capital Inc. focuses on transatlantic IPOs and impact investments

"From Miami, I want to use my international contacts to mobilize capital for sustainable growth companies - on both sides of the Atlantic," says Olek. His network ranges from hedge fund legend Paul Singer (Elliott Advisors) to global family offices and institutional investors from Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
With his departure, Germany is losing a capital market specialist who has been able to attract international investors to German companies for decades. For the US, however, his move means an increase in capital, expertise, and global connections.
