Family Business Events
At Family Business United, our events are designed to bring family business owners, leaders, and advisers together. We host a wide variety of in-person events across the UK together with online events that create spaces for family firms to learn, connect, and share real-world insights into the challenges and opportunities unique to family-owned businesses.
From practical workshops and expert-led discussions to conferences, awards and informal networking, our events focus on the issues that matter most—succession, governance, growth, leadership, family dynamics, and long-term sustainability. Just as importantly, they provide the chance to meet others who truly understand what it means to run a business with family at its heart.
Explore our upcoming events and be part of the conversation shaping the future of family business.
