Why PFBI?

Challenges faced by Family Businesses

• Most of the Business families face unique management challenges because of the differences in the attitude & aspirations of family members

• As new generations join the family business, it is an enormous challenge to keep the family & business together. Some sacrifice the business to keep the families together, while others sacrifice the family to keep the business

• It has been observed that only 13% of the family businesses survive till the 3rd generation, 4% go beyond the third generation and about one third of the business families disintegrate because of generational conflicts

B. Research / Advisory ServicesResearch on Indian family businesses has offered deep insights into the business-related aspects of successful and longstanding Indian family businesses, but very little on family dynamics and mutual interplay.

PFBI’s research aims at providing in-depth study on family element, family governance and more particularly the role of the culture of unwritten principles, processes and shared values in Indian family businesses.

Through case studies, we aim to adopt and adapt proven ‘concepts’ on the dynamics and behavior of Family Owned Businesses in the Indian environment. Development of indigenous and appropriate frameworks that are relevant to the Indian diaspora is an important mission.

The research will be a practitioners perspective to family development.

C. Events, Conferences & Networking India has a large number of family businesses that are poised to grow to the next level. Knowledge sharing, professional development and hand-holding of family businesses would play a critical role in their growth.

PFBI is committed to provide a platform for family businesses & professionals in family businesses to stay connected, exchange knowledge, experiences and insights through various conferences and events.

D. Next-Gen Family EntrepreneurshipPFBI offers internships and development programmes for next generation family members.

Businesses are characterized by efforts on the part of the ownership to balance financial performance with maintenance of family control and benefits for future generations. For family businesses to survive, sustain and grow, they must pass on the entrepreneurial mindset and capabilities to create new streams of wealth across many generations: not just the business on from one generation to the next. This practice is referred to as ‘Transgenerational Entrepreneurship’ or more simply, family entrepreneurship.

Family Entrepreneurship plays a significant role in the long-term sustainability of Family Owned Businesses.

Promote thought leadership and research on Family Entrepreneurship in the Indian context.

Offer uniquely designed learning programmes on Family Entrepreneurship for the next generation.

Provide incubation opportunities in entrepreneurship for members of family owned companies.
