We’re here to listen

A family business is more than just a business. It is an ecosystem where family dynamics intersect with business, wealth, and philanthropy.

Many Founders and Families attempt to navigate these dynamics alone, which can be difficult. At Wingspan, we listen carefully to your unique situation, offer candid, comprehensive guidance and implement purpose-built solutions that enable multigenerational fulfillment.

Family Businesses

While venture capital backed businesses dominate the popular media, family businesses dominate the economy. Globally, family firms constitute two thirds of all businesses, generate 70-90% of global GDP and create 50-80% of jobs in most countries. The opportunity for impact is huge, but so are the challenges. Family businesses oftentimes struggle to design the right scaffolding to ensure the business and the family can flourish for generations. Wingspan exists to help with these issues and maximize effectiveness and longevity of family businesses.
