While family businesses are the engine of the world economy, only 30% survive each generation. In order to beat these statistics and ensure survival, families must innovate in both business and family. The 2010 FBN International Summit will explore how the world’s leading families have pursued innovation to: 
· Overcome challenges
· Seize opportunities and win competitive advantage
· Strengthen family values
· Deepen their contributions to community and society through
their philanthropy
|
Through live family case studies, distinguished panels, and
inspiring keynote speeches, we will explore how families innovate in family and business governance, social responsibility and philanthropy, transforming business models and product innovation, and how the next generation is being prepared to innovate and pursue entrepreneurial initiatives to keep their businesses vibrant into the future. The Summit will take place at the Palmer House Hilton, a Chicago landmark and a beloved family business. If you're interested in the social entrepreneurship and philanthropy sector, then sign up for the 3rd annual Social Entrepreneurship Day, taking place on Sunday October 3rd, following the Summit's main program.
