Conferences like this are a great way for families in business to meet, network and share insights and there are always things to take away too. Family firms are the engine room of the UK economy and working with them across the UK it is clear that events like this really do help them to address issues that otherwise may not be discussed. The stories are inspiring, the approaches taken to certain situations are real and unique to family firms and there is always a real sense of purpose in the room too. We are looking forward to being involved.”
