Revitalizing Heritage: The New Wave of Succession and Expansion in Italian Family Businesses

Redefining Leadership Succession in Italy’s Family-Owned Enterprises

For generations, Italian family businesses have been deeply rooted in tradition, especially regarding the transfer of leadership across family lines. Yet, this age-old custom is experiencing a profound transformation. Instead of depending exclusively on hereditary succession, many firms are now embracing innovative management practices and digital tools to secure their future relevance and growth.

Contemporary family enterprises are implementing multifaceted approaches that include:

  • Structured succession plans prioritizing heirs’ digital literacy and entrepreneurial mindset.
  • The deployment of sophisticated data analytics to pinpoint emerging leaders and tailor their professional development.
  • A blended governance model, combining cherished family principles with expertise from external advisors.
