HEC Family Business Summit

(Hosted by the MBA Family Business Club & the HEC Family Business Center)
 

What does it really take to lead a business that carries your family's name — across generations, through crises, and into the future?

The MBA&FBC Family Business Summit is a first-of-its-kind, student-led event backed by the HEC Family Business Center in Paris, bringing together the next generation of family business leaders with some of the most compelling practitioners in the field. This is not a conference of polished keynotes — it's an intimate, high-trust space for honest conversations about succession, governance, legacy, and growth.

Confirmed speakers include leaders from Galeries Lafayette, Chanel and the Peugeot family, alongside established family groups such as Derichebourg, Banque Wormser, and Maison Mellerio dits Meller, the oldest jeweller in the world.
Centuries of family legacy. Real conversations about leadership, ownership, and continuity.
More speakers to be announced (Taittinger Champagne, Groupe SED).
