Join the New Virtual Study Group: Women in Family Enterprise
We are excited to announce the formation of a new Virtual Study Group, tentatively named the Women in Family Enterprise Virtual Study Group.
About the Group
Chaired by Patricia Angus, this monthly online study group will explore the multifaceted roles of women in family enterprises. Our definition of family enterprise spans family-owned businesses, family offices, family philanthropy, and related intergenerational activities.

The group will delve into topics informed by both academic research and real-world experiences, aiming to enhance our understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities women face in these settings. Open to FFI members who advise and study family enterprises, this group encourages active participation. Members are invited to bring their pressing questions, share their experiences, and learn from one another. Each session will focus on a specific topic drawn from research or practice.

Get Involved
If you’re interested in joining or want to help shape the group’s direction before its late fall launch, please reach out to nell@ffi.org by September 30.
