Michael Kite

Meet Michael Kite, a seasoned entrepreneur and executive with an impressive track record in start-ups, manufacturing operations, and real estate investment. With a degree in Public Administration from the University of Southern California, Michael's entrepreneurial journey began as President and owner of Freeflow Products, Inc. Here, he developed a novel method of mass producing budget-priced, above ground hot tubs brands that were sold through retail and online channels. Under his leadership, he modernized the firm's facilities, developed sales and distribution channels, and successfully coordinated its sale to an overseas hedge fund.

Michael's extensive experience in real estate investment is evident through his current role as a co-owner and partner at the Kite Family LP--an investment firm that focuses on commercial real estate--and at Indigo Global Advisors LLC, where he serves as a partner. Michael is also an active angel investor with positions in various early stage companies.

As a highly accomplished individual, Michael has received notable recognition for his leadership skills, including his participation in MIT's Birthing of Giants programme, which helps entrepreneurs scale up their companies. He currently resides in Newport Beach, California, with his family.
