The Institute for Family-Owned Business is a non-profit 501 © 3 organization dedicated to supporting family-owned businesses, which represent about 80 percent of all businesses in Maine. Through consulting, seminars, workshops, and networking, the Institute assists family-owned firms in meeting the unique managerial challenges associated with operating and sustaining a successful family enterprise.
We have a vast network of organizations and members who share our mission to support family-owned businesses. Within that network we have a number of like-minded organizations, members who have written about their personal journeys and/or their businesses and expertise and we have specific webinars that relate to topics of interest to family-owned businesses.
In this section of our website, we have divided these resources into the following categories:
- Articles by Category
- Books
- Friends of the IFOB (which includes like-minded organizations that have resources that may be useful to your business)
- Internship Program
- Webinars
We hope you find these resources helpful and welcome new submissions!
