Our Mission... is to enhance Family Enterprise survival and to promote the importance of Family Business in today's rapidly changing and hyper-competitive global economy. We will accomplish our mission by creating and disseminating knowledge about the factors and practices that lead to family and business success across generations. We will conduct and share applied research. We will provide a supportive and safe environment for learning, sharing, and networking. We will bring together leading academics, recognized experts, and family business owners and managers to learn and share.
