At the heart of the Vanderbilt-Daxsen Arts & Heritage Fund lies the bold leadership of two creative pioneers: Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin and David Xavier Sánchez (David Daxsen). Their collaboration marks the intersection of heritage, entrepreneurship, and global cultural impact.
Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin, a seventh-generation descendant of the iconic Vanderbilt family, brings a legacy of artistic innovation and social purpose. A singer, actress, and entrepreneur, she founded SohoMuse, a global professional network for creatives, and has launched music independently through her label, C&R Productions.
David Xavier Sánchez — known internationally as David Daxsen — is a cultural entrepreneur and music executive with over 45 record labels under the Daxsen Group. He has collaborated with major players like Sony Music, Warner Music, and Universal, and currently serves as Secretary General of the Council of Global Change, a key force in multilateral cultural diplomacy.
Together, they represent a rare fusion of artistic credibility and strategic leadership, driving forward a fund that is reshaping how the world supports creative talent.
