“We have been members of FBUK since its original inception, in 2001.

Over the years the academic input at events and, even more so, the conversations with other members, have helped us frame our thinking around family governance.

The friendships we have made within the network are enduring, and cross the generations.”

“Unbelievable.

It is the best word to sum up the amount of knowledge we have learnt from attending FBUK events regarding both family governance and succession planning.

The family and company now have a stronger foundation to face the future.”

“At Archwood Group, we have found being members of Family Business UK invaluable over the past few years.

It has enabled us to share experiences with other family businesses around a number of key topics including pension fund management, insurance renewals and leadership team incentive structures.

The network of members covers a vast number of sectors which enables us to gain insights across a diverse spectrum of industries.”

“Family businesses: Building a legacy, not just a profit.

Family-owned businesses are driven by more than just financial gain; they’re about creating a lasting legacy for future generations. Strong family bonds are the foundation for success, fostering a sense of shared purpose and commitment that extends beyond profit margins.

FBUK offers valuable insights for family business owners looking to grow their enterprises while preserving their unique family heritage.”

“We joined FBUK 10 years ago and have attended every conference, and a number of regional events, which are all very stimulating.

Next year we are proposing to take a party of seven to the conference and are confident that the time and expense will, as ever, be well rewarded.”
