Last month, I very honoured to be invited by my good friends Tjahjadi Bunjamin and Prawidha Murti to speak at "Decoding Family Wealth & Business Succession". The half day seminar was jointly organised by Hiswara Bunjamin & Tandjung and A.D. Financial Group for 50 Indonesian Family Office Representetives. I was asked to be Herbert Smith Freehills Prolegis LLC's representative speaking on matters relating to #privatewealth, #trust and #succession from the context of #Indonesian family assets parked in Singapore - which are subject to #Singapore property laws and regulations. It was also great to meet the great minds from AD and the speakers!
Fifty Indonesian family office representatives discussed family office trends at a half-day seminar on Decoding Family Wealth and Business Succession, which we hosted together with A.D. Financial Group. Topics included trends in family office disputes, Indonesia’s upcoming trust law, and handling business succession issues, with speakers sharing family business case studies from around the region. The highlight was a panel discussion on generational succession with Indonesian family business leaders Bapak Kuncoro Wibowo, Ibu Shanti Poesposoetjipto, Bani M Mulia and Devin Widya Krisnadi.

✈ Our exciting Southeast Asian - European cultural exchange in generational wealth transition and family business! 🏹 Our recent visit to the University of Bergamo in Italy, led by A.D. Financial's Group Managing Director Alvin Yap, has been an eye-opening experience. In October, we partnered Taylor’s University’s International Family Enterprise Center to bring a delegation of family business leaders eager for our family development program to the alpine Lombardy city of Bergamo just 40 km from Milan, and home to a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Delegates benefited not only from east-west expert engagement on family enterprise solutions, but also enjoyed enriching cultural activities as a family retreat. We visited Kilometro Rosso, the heart of innovation in Lombardy, as well as Accademia Carrara, an art gallery and academy of fine arts renowned for its timeless artistic masterpieces. Additionally, we had the privilege of engaging with local family-run businesses, such as Fra.Mar Spa. #FamilyBusiness #GenerationalTransition #Innovation #Leadership #HigherEducation #GlobalLearning #UniversityOfBergamo #TaylorsUniversity
Unibg, fucina di eccellenza per le imprese familiari globali L'Università degli Studi di Bergamo si conferma polo di attrazione per l’alta formazione internazionale. Questa settimana, il nostro Ateneo accoglie una delegazione di prestigiose imprese familiari malesi provenienti dalla Taylor’s University (IFEC, International Family Enterprise Center), istituzione che si posiziona nella top 10 delle università asiatiche. Un gruppo di imprenditori, accompagnati dalle proprie famiglie, ha scelto Bergamo e l’expertise di Unibg per affrontare una sfida cruciale: il passaggio generazionale e la gestione delle imprese familiari. Il programma formativo, oltre alle lezioni frontali, prevede un ricco calendario di attività esperienziali, tra cui visite al Kilometro Rosso, cuore pulsante dell’innovazione lombarda, e all’Accademia Carrara, scrigno di capolavori artistici. Non mancheranno incontri con realtà imprenditoriali familiari del territorio come Fra.Mar Spa, occasione di confronto e scambio di best practice. “Non è un caso isolato”, spiegano con orgoglio le professoresse Cristina Bettinelli e Emanuela Rondi, leader del progetto. “A maggio, manager canadesi con le stesse esigenze formative hanno scelto i nostri programmi di alto livello. Unibg offre un percorso indipendente e sartoriale che garantisce un profondo upskilling e stimola una riflessione strategica sulle sfide che le imprese familiari si trovano ad affrontare oggi”. La presenza di queste delegazioni internazionali testimonia la crescente attrattività di Unibg e il suo impegno costante nell’investire in progetti di qualità, consolidando la propria posizione di leadership nella formazione d’eccellenza.
