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.
Our Next Event
Wednesday, 18 November 2026
In a fast-moving world where AI is transforming the way we work, Ant will share practical insights into how organisations can embrace emerging technologies with confidence. From identifying the opportunities that will have the greatest impact on your business to making the most of your available budget, you'll leave with a clearer understanding of where to start and how to move forward.
Expect a relaxed, thought-provoking session packed with fresh ideas, real-world examples and practical advice to help you unlock the potential of AI and future technologies in your organisation.
Ant Morse is a futurist, author and recognised voice in artificial intelligence. Long before ChatGPT entered the mainstream, Ant had predicted the rise of Generative AI and AI Agents. Today, he is exploring the next stage of this evolution, where AI Agents develop into powerful AI Assistants and advanced AI World Models.
With over 30 years' experience in the technology and digital sector, including his former role as Head of Digital & AI at Virgin Media O2, Ant now advises global organisations and governments as an independent fractional AI advisor. He also serves as Chair of the UK's largest Innovation Forum, helping business leaders understand both the opportunities and responsibilities that come with adopting emerging technologies.
Drawing on insights from his book The Future of Us, Ant cuts through the headlines and hype to provide a balanced, practical perspective on AI. His sessions help organisations understand what is happening today, what's coming next, and how to adopt AI responsibly while creating meaningful business value.
Whether you're just beginning your AI journey or exploring how to scale existing initiatives, this is an opportunity to gain expert insight, ask questions, and connect with like-minded business leaders.
