Designed to empower business families through exclusive experiences that foster inter-generational learning, the International Family Enterprise Centre’s (IFEC) Bergamo Study Tour brought together 17 leaders and next-generation members from family businesses across Malaysia, Indonesia, and Australia. Hosted in the historic city of Bergamo, Italy, the study tour offered immersive learning, cross-cultural networking, and family collaboration, providing a transformative experience for participants.
Held across one week, the programme balanced academic insights with real-world family business case studies. It featured expert-led discussions on critical topics such as socio-emotional wealth, governance, and leveraging tradition as a competitive advantage. Visits to local businesses like Kilometro Rosso Innovation District and Fra.Mar allowed participants to learn practical strategies for balancing tradition and innovation.
