How do family enterprises balance generations of tradition with the rapid rise of AI? 🤖✨

That is exactly the question our CEO, Carrie Wilson, is exploring today at the sold-out Family Business Alliance and Owned Business Institute (FOBI) event!

We are incredibly excited to dive into the insights shared by Dr. Evelyn Micelotta during her session, "𝙇𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙧 𝙁𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙜 - 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙁𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮 𝘽𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙉𝙖𝙫𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙏𝙚𝙘𝙝𝙣𝙤𝙡𝙤𝙜𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙡 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣."

From automation to artificial intelligence, family businesses have always navigated disruption on their own terms. Dr. Micelotta’s session moves past the AI hype to focus on what truly matters: strategic alignment, patient capital, and long-term stewardship.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺:
𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙄𝙣𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙋𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙤𝙭: Balancing the unique trust and agility of family firms against the challenges of legacy systems and risk perception.

𝙑𝙖𝙡𝙪𝙚𝙨-𝘿𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙏𝙚𝙘𝙝: How to adopt emerging technologies like AI in a way that respects company values and ensures continuity.

𝙁𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚-𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙇𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥: Equipping the next generation to evaluate technological change not as a threat, but as an opportunity to strengthen the business.

Family businesses don’t just survive disruption—they leverage it to build lasting legacies.
We can't wait to put these insights into action!
