Desktop Conferences

Periodically, Forum members and parents will have opportunities to attend virtual conferences—just like the real thing—but in a convenient, cloud-based format. This eliminates the costs and travel time; but, provides a similar experience. Also, it makes it easy to invite siblings, family business leaders, and family office and foundation executives to attend (currently, without any additional charge).

​

Just like a regular conference, there will be a registration desk, main platform, breakout rooms, exhibitor hall, and networking venues.

​

A sampling of the categories of topics that will be covered will include:

​

• Marketing

• Sales

• Mergers & Acquisitions

• Real Estate

• IT

• Economics

• Intellectual Property Rights

• Public Speaking

• Alternative Investments

• Advertising

• Social Media

• Cyber Security

• Innovation Processes

• Operational Management Processes

• Debt Financing

• Supply Chains

• Human Resources

• ESOPs

• Employee Benefits

"The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what it is that interests you and that you can do well, and when you find it, put your whole soul into it― every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have." – John D. Rockefeller III
