Annual Global Conference: The Field, The Families, The Future

Time: 17-20 October 2012
Venue: Brussels, Belgium

More than 300 family enterprise professionals, educators and family business owners from around the globe will meet for FFI Brussels: The Field, The Families, The Future.

Focus Areas:

• The Field: Moving beyond the "buckets” of law, finance, management and behavioral science that defined the field in the beginning, the conference programming will include approaches, research, and case studies that are unique to the profession of family enterprise advising today.
• The Families: The nuclear family appears to be in decline, and thus the extended family has taken on new meaning as cross-cultural research has created new family models. Entrepreneurial drive now goes far beyond the domain of the founder to include the family across generations. Implications of the changing family structure will be examined.
• The Future: An exploration of the social, business and interpersonal aspects of family enterprise and enterprising families from a futurist perspective.

Organized By:

• Family Firm Institute
