OUR FOCUS, THE FAMILY
At IE Family Business Center, the flagship initiative for family-owned firms at IE University, our mission is to share world-class knowledge on the challenges and drivers of success for business families, contributing to their long-term development and positive impact on society.
We are an active community of academics and experts who generate practical knowledge to support family-owned and operated businesses, their stakeholders and society. We believe that the biggest challenge family-run companies face is not about surviving, but creating value over generations. Family-run businesses have the potential to be the engine for wealth creation across generations—let’s harness it together.
