The Centre for Family Business (CFB) began its research since 2006 and was established in 2012 at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) due to the many research initiatives on family succession, family business governance and family offices under CUHK Business School.
Our Business School recognizes the importance of this multidisciplinary field in the Asian context, and that it is instrumental in offering a full-spectrum of support to this growing field. Our vision and mission is to serve as a major driver of the family business activities in Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area and in the Asia-Pacific region.

Empowering family members with knowledge and tools to lead across generations
Equipping advisors to better support the unique needs of family enterprises
Championing the visibility and influence of family businesses across Asia
Fostering a vibrant community to connect families, advisors, and institutions
Unlike other traditional family business centres, our Centre carries a dual focus on family enterprising and business advising. Family businesses go through cycles of development with an increasing complexity in dynamics. We need to know different functional elements to achieve a sustainable growth for family enterprises. For family businesses to go beyond generations, the role of trusted advisors is very important. The Centre shall leverage its resources to grow this ecology while attaching a high level of neutrality in our research.
