Next Gen Symposium
Overview
Family-owned businesses are the heart and soul of the Indian economy and by nature, also more challenging than their corporate counterparts. With the next generation joining the leadership board, these businesses are exploring new territories, new sectors and are also considering inorganic growth. When actions are strategically planned, family businesses are destined to succeed for generations.
At PwC, we recognise the value of the legacy businesses. Our Next Gen Symposium is an interactive platform designed for the new business leaders to interact with leading industry experts and like-minded family business peer group members to benefit from shared insights on their path to leadership. It also helps provide actionable insight necessary to plan for a smooth transition and upgradation of family-owned enterprises.
