Ahead of the Game - Actionable Business Insights from Entrepreneurs, Founders and Business Leaders

This is the seventh and final podcast, in a series of seven, where we interview our very own expert (and Managing Director), Michal Fox. To be successful in a multi-generational family business, sometimes it’s a matter of a conversation with somebody who's got a significant background in this area and having them on hand to assist you in dealing with diverse and complex scenarios. In this blog, we talk about having this type of person available to you as part of your family office.

In this podcast, we discuss investing outside of the traditional family business. This may sound like an oxymoron but, just as anyone working for or in a business, we want to pay off our house or into superannuation, so that we can prepare for future needs and build wealth. The same is true for aspirations of individual family members in a family business, with the added complication of being in a family business! They may have ambition to provide a future source of wealth, interest and challenge for future generations, so investing in another type of business or industry may become an option.

This is the fourth blog, in a series of seven, where we talk about the family enterprise and, in particular, successfully managing succession from one generation to the next. We interview our Managing Director and family business expert, Michael Fox, who speaks about the gems in his recent paper, Riches to Rags in Three Generations. Whether you are a public company or a private enterprise, let alone a family-controlled private enterprise, the future relies on the financial horsepower and the values held by the overall organisation. These values and how they relate to the business and family can nurture every aspect of aspiration, from whether it's employment, ownership, or just being a family member. In this blog, we talk about keeping it together in a family enterprise.

This is the third blog, in a series of seven, where we talk about family business succession, along with other issues, in running and managing a family enterprise. In this blog, we talk about conflict. Conflict is inherent in any business but, with a family business, there are also inherent complications. Are you creating foundations and living up to the next generation's social aspirations, and the social aspirations of the founding generation? How can you identify, prevent and manage conflict? All of this is extremely important, often for the extended family’s continued harmony, as well as the health of the business itself.

Dan Smith is country manager for Mass Challenge a startup accelerator with a global network in throughout Boston, London, Mexico, Adelaide and more.

Dan has had significant exposure to startup and new business programs, and we talk about a range of issues, including - the purpose of a startup accelerator, other new business programs and the different functions on offer. And then there’s the big question: Which program, if any, is right for you?

We also talk about startup ecosystems, and how startups can transition out of the safety net of these supportive programs into the real world.

And then we chat to three startup founders who have just been through the MassChallenge program to talk about the birth of their companies.
