Family businesses are the backbone of economies around the world comprising the majority of all companies, 70% of global GDP and 60% of global employment. They are a key driver of business and growth, and their sustained long-term value creation is important for both the economy and society at large. Topics will also include governance, leadership, entrepreneurship, innovation, family office, business in society and more. Family business is a force for good contributing billions of dollars to impact investments, foundations, philanthropy, and social progress. Business families have always benefitted society, and next generation leaders seem to have a renewed appetite to make lasting changes in this world. It is important to remember that family businesses are more than just enterprises. They are the result of hard work, dedication, and a shared vision and values passed down through generations. The podcast is not just about business. It is more than that. It is about the people behind the business, the values they represent, their legacy and the lessons they've learned. We provide you with an invitation to join a community of global family business entrepreneurs, dreamers, change makers and legacy builders. INSEAD Family Business will explore perspectives and insights, and feature some of the best global practices in family business leadership.
