Welcome to our series of roundtable discussions for family business owners. By attending one or more sessions, you and your family may benefit from the opportunity to learn from the experiences of other family business owners and seek advice from selected professionals on a whole range of business critical issues. These events are designed to be hands-on as well as to stimulate some lively and wide-ranging debates

We have produced a calendar of events for 2008 which highlights the dates of these events around the country. In January, such forums took place in London, Buckinghamshire, Birmingham and Derby.

As these programmes have been designed exclusively for family business owners, each forum will kick off by listening to the experiences of a family business owner before engaging in a wider debate. Full details of the speakers, dates and venues can be found on the following pages.

Please let us know if you and/or other family members would like to attend by contacting the team. The sessions are suitable for family business owners and their next generation of companies turning over £1million or more.

As a company that started off as a family business, and has looked after many business owners, their businesses and their families, Coutts knows a few things about family businesses too. We look forward to sharing these experiences with you.
