Uofl Family Business Center

The UofL Family Business Center informs, celebrates, and strengthens family firms in the Kentuckiana region. Despite the prominence of family-owned businesses (80-90%), only 40% survive to the 2nd generation, 12% to the third, and 3%to the fourth. The University of Louisville Family Business Center (FBC) is committed to improving these statistics by offering resources designed to inform, strengthen and celebrate family-owned businesses. The FBC has helped many businesses build a strong foundation for family business governance, continuity, leadership transition, and growth. Interactive workshops, Roundtables, events, and educational forums provide FBC Members access to best practice knowledge to improve succession and survival rates for family-owned businesses.
