# Jacob Helberg Holdings Structured map of [[Jacob Helberg]]'s financial interests — modest by billionaire-roster standards, but the **conflict question** is sharp because he is a sitting official steering the exact sectors he has invested in. The people side is [[Jacob Helberg First Degree Connections]]; the canonical [[Jacob Helberg]] page carries the narrative. > Positions are private and largely undisclosed beyond OGE filings. This page tracks what is known and flags what to watch as filings surface (see [[Jacob Helberg News Log]]). ## Wealth base - Palantir-era compensation (Senior Advisor to CEO [[Alex Karp]]) + prior Google tenure. - Not a fund principal (unlike [[Joe Lonsdale]] or [[Marc Andreessen]]) — his holdings are personal, not an institutional AUM. ## The angel portfolio (the conflict surface) Helberg is described as an **early investor in a range of defense-adjacent and AI tech companies**. As Under Secretary of State for Economic Affairs — the official steering economic-security and tech policy, including [[Pax Silica]] and [[Tech Decoupling]] — this portfolio is the live conflict-of-interest question: - Specific holdings are not fully public; OGE disclosure and any divestiture/recusal commitments are the things to track. - The pattern rhymes with the roster's other "wrote/steer the policy, hold the assets" cases — see [[Defense Tech Conflicts of Interest]] and compare [[Eric Schmidt Holdings]]. ## Institutional affiliations (not equity, but influence) - [[Hill and Valley Forum]] — co-founder; convening power over the defense-tech donor/founder class. - [[Palantir]] — former Senior Advisor; the origin relationship. ## See Also - [[Jacob Helberg]] — canonical biography - [[Jacob Helberg Political Donations]] · [[Jacob Helberg First Degree Connections]] - [[Hill and Valley Forum]] · [[Defense Tech Conflicts of Interest]] - [[Jacob Helberg Dossier]]
