Coventry University is hosting a breakfast advice session on 26
May which is especially tailored towards family-run businesses to
help them manage their real family wealth more effectively.
'Growing Family Wealth' is a two-hour long workshop which is has
been organised by the Institute of Applied Entrepreneurship (IAE)
in conjunction with Harrison Beale and Owen, Chartered Accountants
and Financial Advisors.
Dr Gideon Maas, the Director of the Institute for Applied
Entrepreneurship, said:
"The real wealth of families cannot be defined in financial
terms although finances play an important supportive role in the
creation and maintenance of real family wealth.
"Family wealth is combining human and intellectual capital to
make sure that a family business will carry on building a legacy
over generations. It is often not an automatic approach and needs
careful planning on various fronts."
This is the second breakfast advice session that the University
has organised and the topics to be discussed include:
· Succession planning
· Communication within the family
· Family retreats
Dr. Maas will be presenting the workshop with Phil Ewing,
Director at Harrison Beale and Owen. Both have extensive knowledge
and experience in the field of family businesses.
The workshop costs £10 per person and will be taking place
on Thursday 26 May, 2011 at the HDTI Building, Coventry University
Technology Park, Puma Way, Coventry between 8am and 10am.
