Join us The EY Global Family Business Summit offers family business owners an exclusive platform to discuss the most pressing issues they face today and to be inspired by some of the most successful family business leaders in the world. The program Taking place during the EY World Entrepreneur Of The Year 2017 Forum in Monaco, this year s summit aptly entitled Talent Innovation Growth: redefining the formula for family business success promises to be the place where entrepreneurs from multi-generational businesses and those building a legacy for their next generations come together, celebrate and regroup to plan their future.

Looking forward to the next 10 years, family firms are going to face new realities that will challenge even their strongest of features. Their long-term perspective, family values and job stability will soon be challenged by emerging trends and economic paradigm shifts. It is crucial to start identifying what the new competitive advantages for family businesses will be in the future and to redefine what success will look like for the next generations. We believe that by exploring these three dimensions innovation, growth and talent from a family business perspective, we can help redefine what will make family businesses successful in the future and how they will balance their long-term approach with the shortening of business cycles.
