TO empower business families in preserving their generational family legacies, the newly-established International Family Enterprise Centre (IFEC) is on a mission to advance knowledge of business family management.

In May next year, the centre, which is under the purview of Taylor’s University, will be organising its first study tour to Bergamo, Italy. Aimed at educating members of business families on the management and operation of local family-owned businesses and industrial places of interest, the study tour will include learning workshops led by experts at the University of Bergamo.
