ferc_logo.gifThe Family Enterprise Research Conference is dedicated to developing a community of scholars interested in conducting research into understanding family firms and creating usable knowledge in this field.

Co-founded by Mark Green and Pramodita Sharma, the goal of this conference is to enable scholars to design and develop research projects that are theoretically sound, empirically accurate, and of practical significance to family firms.

We strive to ensure that this conference:

  • Helps build a community of scholars interested in Family Business Research
  • Is held in North America
  • Is reasonably priced
  • Is rigorous in its standards and developmental in its tone and culture
