‘Make Ireland the best place in the world to do small business’…words former Taoiseach Enda Kenny said at the opening of the DCU National Center for Family Business in 2013. Nice to hear him repeat those words today at the Original Irish Hotels @OriginalIrishHt @DCU

[Eric Clinton @ericclinton64]

Family businesses are the heartbeat of Ireland. A great example of family firms embedded in our communities are our Irish hotels. I was delighted to speak today at the Original Irish Hotels annual conference today. @DCU @DCUNCFB @OriginalIrishHt

We regularly hear about the social contributions of family firms. It was great to listen to Maurice Healy, Chairman of Healy Group, on what social contribution means to his family business and the allocation of 20% of pre-tax profits to social causes. @DCUNCFB @DCU

I know when I started on my PhD journey, the question of “What is a family business?” was one I long grabbled with. Vanessa Diaz, Teresa Hogan, Martina Brophy and I have written a paper which I hope will assist those on their PhD journey.

We regularly hear that family firms are the dominant form of organising globally. But here is a recent study showcasing the contribution of family firms to the GDP of countries across the globe. Fascinating insights.

Really interesting chat with Richard Curran of RTE The Business. Great insights from Vincent Carton on the highs and lows of succession in family firms.

[Eric Clinton @ericclinton64]

I’m here at RTE Radio to talk about Family Business Succession. Hope to speak about succession processes in family firms in Europe but also some of the unique aspects of family firms across Asia.
