Polish take on succession
24 April 2025 • 11:30-13:00 • conference room 7 • Session translated simultaneously PL/EN
Thematic scope
An increasing number of large companies left “orphaned” – a challenge for both Poland and Europe. The complexities of planning a succession process in Poland. Best practices in the country (a Polish succession model?) and experiences of entrepreneurs from around the world. What to avoid: pitfalls, mistakes, and dead ends. Family foundations, family constitutions, and unconventional solutions in the absence of a successor. Between continuity and change: how to guide a family business onto new paths without losing its family DNA? How to prepare successors? Or perhaps an investor? VC and PE funds as interim solutions when a successor is unavailable. The role of external mediators, hired managers, and support from financial investors and banks in the succession process.
