Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship hosts conference at FSU Florence Study Center

Family business research is needed to deepen the understanding of family firms and their role in the broader organizational landscape. This type of research is receiving attention from scholars across the globe, providing an increasing body of knowledge that still has many unanswered questions.

To support this research, Florida State University’s Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship hosted the 19th annual Theories of Family Enterprise (TOFE) Conference at the FSU Florence Study Center last month.

The premier annual conference, which took place April 3-5, is a limited attendance gathering dedicated to advancing family business scholarship by fostering theoretical development and empirical research. It provides a collaborative environment where researchers can deepen their understanding of family firms and their role in the broader organization landscape.

“It was an honor to take part in the 19th Annual Theories of Families Conference and celebrate the impact of family enterprises,” said Susan Fiorito, dean of the Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship. “At the Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship, we’re proud to support research and education that help these businesses thrive. Jim Moran believed in the power of family business to create lasting change, and his legacy continues through our work and the Jim Moran Foundation. We were delighted to host such an inspiring group of scholars at the FSU Florence Study Center.”
