CeFEO Research Seminars
CeFEO organizes seminars for scholars as well as family business practitioners such as owners, managers, advisors and policy makers with interest in family enterprising and ownership.
Every week or every second week, CeFEO hosts research seminars on a range of topics. Each seminar addresses a current topic of relevance with a wide audience of interested participants. Speakers can be CeFEO members or other scholars within or outside JIBS. Specific emphasis is placed on achieving a high degree of interaction between speakers and the audience to secure a good learning outcome (e.g., feedback on how to strengthen the paper or address editors and reviewers’ comments, new knowledge on specific or broad topics).
Type of Seminars
- CeFEO Research Seminars – presentation of working papers
- CeFEO R&R Research Seminars – presentation of papers for which a review & resubmit request has been received from a journal
- CeFEO Special Issues Seminars – targeting paper submissions to Journal Special Issues
- CeFEO Pitch Seminars – projects and papers idea generation and development
- CeFEO Method Seminars – dedicated to competency development
Covid-19 significantly impacted on the number of CeFEO Seminars, as it cut to zero the number of external guests visiting JIBS. For this reason we count 19 seminars in 2020. Nonetheless, this difficult situation created the opportunity to join forces with other 14 strong research groups and form an international network among the largest European Family Business Centers (EuFBC). In the period June-December 2020, CeFEO participated to 10 EuFBC Research Seminars. Throughout 2019 CeFEO hosted 31 seminars and there were 26 seminars in 2018.
