Success & Longevity in Family Business
There is no business like Family Business. It stands out from other types of businesses because of a certain kind of passion that can be a unique source of strength. At the same time it faces some specific issues which include: bringing on the Next Generation of owners; family dynamics; organising governance of the business and the family; and dealing with inheritance and gift taxes. These issues are mostly ignored by general business networks. To meet these needs, the Family Business Network was set up in 1989.
We know that running a family business can be difficult. We know that it can be lonely in ways that few outsiders understand. But we also know that the commitment and multi-generational thinking of family businesses can provide an unrivaled competitive edge and huge personal satisfaction.
