My services in family governance
An entrepreunarial family, regardless of the assets it manages, forms a complex system that brings both significant opportunities and inherent risks. The long-term success of your family enterprise relies on establishing the right governance structure. I am there to accompany you in defining your own strategy.
What are the key challenges facing your entrepreneurial family? There’s no one-size-fits-all solution, but there are essential issues to address in order to establish effective family governance.
