Strathclyde Business School is committed to the advancement of family business. Last year the inaugural Family Business Lecture Series secured speakers from four of Scotland's most successful family businesses – Mackies of Scotland, Wm Grant and Sons, Walkers Shortbread and Ardtornish Estate. The speakers tackled the topics of succession, governance, growing the family firm, managing family dynamics, and intergenerational transfer of wealth.
We are delighted to confirm Mairi Mickel, 4th generation owner of Mactaggart & Mickel, Chair of the Mickel Fund and Family Business Advisor, as the next speaker in the series on February 25.
The event will take place in the McCance Lecture Theatre 1, Level 3, Richmond Street, Glasgow, with registration and coffee from 5.30pm and the lecture beginning at 6pm. There will be a question and answer session thereafter and a drinks reception at 7.30pm with the event finishing at 8.30pm.
It is expected this will be a very popular event. Should you wish to attend please register as soon as possible as places are on a first-come, first-served basis.
