Power-Packed Sessions Over 3 Days to Enhance Deep-Dive Conversations, Strategic Insights and Collaborative Knowledge Exchange.

The Australian Family Enterprise and Office Forum is a pivotal gathering designed to bridge local wisdom with global ambitions, empowering family enterprises to navigate the evolving investment and business landscape. Under the theme Australian Prosperity: Bridging Local Wisdom with Global Ambitions, this forum addresses the unique challenges faced by Australian family enterprises, including solving conflict amongst generations, the know-how in establishing a family office as a separate entity from the family enterprise, comparing Asian to Australian family offices, family business succession, and, a lighthearted Sydney versus Melbourne for your business location. Through keynote addresses, fireside chats, and panel discussions, attendees will gain actionable strategies to build resilient enterprises that embrace innovation while preserving their Australian identity. 

Day 3, Cultural Immersion Day – 20 September Celebrating Melbourne’s Cultural & Familial Legacy

To complement the core forum sessions, join us for an optional day curated around connection, culture, and storytelling.
We’ll be hosted by the Myer Family at Elgee Park—Mornington Peninsula’s oldest vineyard and a cherished symbol of Australian winemaking heritage.
• Begin with a guided walk through the estate’s horse complex and stables, reflecting the Myer family's equestrian traditions.
• Experience a tasting of Elgee Park vintages, surrounded by the natural amphitheatre of the region’s landscape.
• Engage in a meaningful fireside-style conversation led by Edward and his father, sharing insights on intergenerational transfer of assets and operating family businesses.
• Conclude with lunch at Merricks General Store, a beloved local institution dating back to the 1920s, paired with wines from the vineyard—a moment to reflect and connect before returning to Melbourne.
This immersive journey blends local legacy with thoughtful exchange—a rare opportunity to deepen relationships in a relaxed, inspiring setting.
