About The Center for Family Enterprises
The Kellogg Center for Family Enterprises (KCFE) is dedicated to rigorous and relevant research into the unique demands, strengths, and evolutionary paths of family enterprises and to disseminating those findings with impact.

In addition to our focus on the complexities of family enterprise leadership, governance and strategy, we integrate Northwestern University's and the Kellogg School of Management's authoritative expertise into our curriculum to create a world-class, comprehensive, cross-discipline family enterprise resource. Our fusion of this deep academic capability with knowledge gleaned from our global community of high-impact business-owning families helps create the Center's unique theory-driven, evidence-based frameworks.

KCFE combines proven concepts with real-life context to create a one-of-a-kind resource for the study of family enterprises worldwide.
