Moments from Wealth360 conference, 2018
How will we let the business thrive without us?
YOUR BUSINESS IS THE WORK OF A LIFETIME. It's almost impossible to distinguish where the influence of the founder ends and the business scope begins. The very idea of leaving it often seems strange. What will I do? Who will run the business? Why don‘t people appreciate what is dear to me? What do my successors want and will they be able to manage the business?
For the second year, the wealth management conference Wealth 360 will create the opportunity to share experiences on family business and asset management. The experiences of others will help business owners and successors find answers to their own questions.
The moderator of the conference
Jonas Tamulis, a leading partner of the international consulting organization Bridge Capital, has seen a number of successes and failures in business transfers. HIs observations and insights cannot be left unheard.

DATE: 26 JANUARY 2017
PLACE: MARTYNAS MAŽVYDAS NATIONAL LIBRARY OF LITHUANIA
SUBJECT: ASSET MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE. Succession planning - smooth transfer of a family business.
The era has taught us little to talk about wealth. We worked a lot. Our energy, ideas, thoughts have become flesh, and today we can enjoy the result. We want to preserve and deliver the created well-being to the next generation, but there are many questions.
Do our children want take the same path we took?
Do they understand the value of what they are offered?
Are you ready to take responsibility?
Won‘t the wealth be a cause of family conflicts, and won‘t it simply be wasted?
How to manage business and property so that it creates value?
At Wealth 360, we have opened a new space for sharing family and business management experience.
