A BRIEF INTRODUCTION
OUR GOALS
The Foundation for Family Businesses is a non-profit organisation that pursues three main goals: to promote the sharing of ideas between family-owned businesses; to support research and institutions focusing on enterprises of this type; and enhancing acceptance of family businesses in the public and political arenas.
ABOUT US
The Foundation for Family Businesses is an economically and politically independent initiative of family-run enterprises.
WHAT WE DO
The foundation regularly commissions studies into topics of relevance to family businesses, and supports the establishment and operation of related research and teaching institutions. The foundation also functions as a point of contact for media representatives and political decision-makers when it comes to the legal, tax and economic interests of family-owned businesses.
