The aim of the network is to deliver a safe and trusted environment for peer to peer learning; creating experiences of value and insight for family businesses and the generations working within them. Insight days, topical family business workshops, a bespoke conference and plenty of sign posting and support for assistance, advice, mentoring and investment channels are all designed with family business needs at their heart.
