Future Tech announces new $1,000 child investment benefit for full-time employees to support family financial growth and long-term opportunity

Fort Lauderdale, Florida – In a move that blends forward-thinking policy with a deep commitment to its employees, Future Tech Enterprise, Inc. has unveiled a new benefit that promises long-term financial support for families. The company will now contribute $1,000 for every child born to a full-time U.S. employee, matching the recently established federal investment under the Invest America Act.

This initiative, effective immediately, is designed to double the federal government’s new child savings plan and provide young Americans with a stronger financial start. The announcement was made just weeks after President Biden signed the Invest America Act into law on July 4, 2025. The legislation provides a $1,000 investment account for every U.S.-born child to help reduce generational poverty and narrow the wealth gap.

Future Tech, a family-owned global IT solutions provider based in Fort Lauderdale, is now joining the federal effort with its own matching contribution—effectively giving children of their employees a $2,000 financial head start from birth.

“As someone who has dedicated time and resources to ensuring children have the tools they need to thrive—whether that means providing laptops to young leaders in our schools or mentoring future entrepreneurs—this legislation resonates deeply,” said Bob Venero, CEO of Future Tech. “It aligns with our belief that opportunity should not be a matter of luck, but a shared investment in our collective future.”

This new benefit will apply to all children born to Future Tech’s full-time U.S. employees. The funds, like the federal seed account, are designed for long-term use—potentially supporting educational expenses, homeownership, or other milestones as the child grows.

“This investment will create a powerful multiplier effect,” added Venero. “By pairing federal investment with private sector support, we can accelerate generational wealth-building and opportunity. As a family-owned company, we see our employees as extended family and we want their children to have the same shot at success that we work to build for our clients every day. I was inspired by Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Technologies, recent decision to offer a similar benefit at Dell Technologies.”

Venero’s comments reflect a growing trend among corporate leaders to take a more active role in addressing economic inequality. By matching the federal government’s contribution, Future Tech is setting a new standard in the tech sector—merging corporate responsibility with meaningful financial action.

The decision also underscores the company’s broader philosophy: that true innovation begins with people, not just products.

“If we want the United States to remain a global leader in technology and innovation, it starts by investing in the next generation,” said Venero. “By giving every child — regardless of background — a head start, we’re helping ensure a brighter, more equitable future for all.”

Future Tech has long demonstrated a commitment to community and education. In the past, the company has led several initiatives focused on youth empowerment—ranging from laptop donations to underserved students to hands-on mentoring for aspiring tech professionals. This latest initiative is an extension of that mission, further solidifying Future Tech’s reputation as a company that leads with its values.

The $1,000-per-child contribution may seem modest in isolation, but when paired with the federal investment and allowed to grow over the years, the long-term impact could be significant—especially for families who may otherwise lack the resources to save.

By focusing on children and families, Future Tech is sending a clear message that its success isn’t just measured by profit or market share, but by the lasting well-being of its people. The company’s decision also adds momentum to a national conversation around employer-driven investments in financial equity.

For families working in technology, this program could offer peace of mind and a tangible resource for the future. For the children it’s meant to serve, it could mean more possibilities, fewer limitations, and a stronger path toward financial independence.
