Chase Koch | Son of Charles Koch – Koch Industries

Net worth : $60 billion

Son of Liz Koch and the billionaire Charles Koch, Chase Koch was born in 1977 in Wichita, Kansas. Chase became involved in the management and philanthropy of Koch Industries and the Koch family. He graduated from Texas A&M University with a degree in marketing. He acquired high-level positions in Koch’s subsidiaries and eventually becoming president of Koch Disruptive Technologies, a venture capital subsidiary of Koch, in 2018. He is also a board member of Koch Industries. He has chosen to work in the company’s Wichita headquarters instead of its Washington office to avoid politics.

Outside of Koch Industries, Chase has taken the helm of the Koch family’s philanthropic activities. Unlike the other Koch sibling’s support for conservative causes, Chase has slowly moved away from it, focusing instead on libertarian causes such as prison reform, the free-market economy, and personal freedom. He is married to Annie Breitenbach and has three children. They live on a 70-acre property in Wichita purchased for $3 million in 2010. As heir to Koch Industries, he will inherit his father’s wealth of $44.9 billion as of 2021.
