Alex Soros Inherits Control of George Soros' Philanthropic Empire

Alexander Soros, son of billionaire financier and philanthropist George Soros, has taken control of his father's $25 billion grant-making foundation, the Open Society Foundation. Alexander intends to continue the group's focus on human rights and justice, but also plans to broaden the foundation's work by embracing issues such as voting and abortion rights. He also expressed concern about the odds of Donald Trump being reelected president in 2024 and believes that free speech has become too restricted on college campuses.

George Soros' Son Takes Over $25B Empire with Political Focus

Billionaire philanthropist George Soros is passing control of his $25 billion empire, including the Open Society Foundation, to his younger son Alex Soros, who is even "more political" than his father. Alex, who is introverted and once eschewed the family's wealth, is expected to weigh in heavily in the 2024 elections and is focused on improving black and Latino turnout at the polls. The move passes over Soros's elder son, Jonathan, who at one point was thought to be the obvious heir to the family's empire.
