Message From The President

African family businesses make up 80-90% of businesses on the continent. But there is little attention for them in terms of capacity development for their stakeholders. They tend to seek professional development from training and academic institutions that have no specialty for them. Family businesses are different; they cannot be compared to any other form of business. Family businesses need a certain kind of knowledge for human capital development. Their capacity-building solutions have to be bespoke and relevant. For this reason, Legacy Institute of Family Business (LIFB) has been established to offer capacity development services to family businesses. LIFB has the best tools to equip businesses. Our resource persons are experienced practitioners and scholars in the family business space. We are the solution for family businesses.
