Speaker Series

The Centre also organizes speaker sessions with eminent personalities in the world of family business across both academia and industry. Previously, speakers have spoken on a wide variety of topics such as boardroom dynamics, inter-generational continuity of family businesses, creation of an innovative organizational culture and leadership of the family enterprise. 

Social Responsibility Initiative

The Centre has started engaging in social activities that greatly benefit the underprivileged and the poor.  Since 2016, the Centre, along with the CSR arm of the PGP class of ISB – the Net Impact Club, annually organises a Blood Donation Camp at our Hyderabad Campus. More than 100 members of the ISB community (staff and students) donate their blood in the camp, which is organized in collaboration with the Institute of Preventive Medicine (IPM) – Central Blood Bank, Hyderabad. The blood collected through this drive is used to serve the needs of patients that come from the poorest sections of the society.  The Centre aspires to initiate and be involved in more such activities in the future.

Students Family Business Forum


Several students of the ISB belong to business families. Some others are interested in working for family businesses. The Student Family Business Forum is a student initiative and supported by the Centre for undertaking discussion on a variety of topics.  The Centre also undertakes continuous engagements with students and alumni on various issues relevant to entrepreneurship and family-controlled businesses.

Alumni Network


Recognising the need to create a structural mechanism to share the knowledge on family business, and create positive action among family members, an alumni network has been created under the Chair. It is expected that several nodal groups that bring families together on this learning platform, will be formed.

Workshops and Webinars

The Centre conducts workshops / webinars and participates in invited speaker sessions on various topics on family business. Some of the themes include, Successfully Managing Challenges in Family Businesses, Impact of Family Ownership on Firm Performance, Succession and Leadership in Family Business, and Building a Lasting Family Business.
