The IFB is a growing network of family businesses who want to help shape a more prosperous and sustainable future for generations to come. We are the UK's largest dedicated Family business organisation, championing and representing our members since 2001. Dealing with the unique challenges of leading and managing a family business can at times feel like a lonely task. But bringing family businesses together, supporting and championing them, their model, and contribution to our economy and society are at the heart of everything we do. Members of our network enjoy the benefits associated with having greater: ◆𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: being more widely heard and effectively represented in shaping regulation, markets, governance mechanisms and operating environments through our advocacy and campaigning. ◆𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: being part of a wider, reciprocal community of family businesses and supporters from across the country with whom to meaningfully connect, learn from, and collaborate with. ◆𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲: to manage bottom-line performance and build resilience and sustained growth over the longer-term. What our members say .... "Joining the IFB a decade ago had a profound effect on our family business. We had struggled with the complexities of succession from 2nd to 3rd generation, but the conversations we started with other businesses, even in different sectors, that had been through the same challenges, helped set us on what turned out to be an overwhelmingly positive journey. I have made some great friends during these 10 years and expect this will continue.’ Ronan Clancy, Executive Chairman at Clancy Group To find out more, visit www.ifb.org.uk Follow us on Twitter @IFB_uk #Nextgen #Succession #Governnce #Familydynamics #Shareholding #Multi-generational #FamilyFirm
