Partnership with Campden FB for the Europe’s most prestigious family business awards
The European Families in Business Awards is to partner with BNP Paribas Wealth Management, a leading global private bank and the largest private bank in the Eurozone, in 2019. This launches an exciting new era for the annual event that celebrates Europe’s finest business families.
The eighth annual awards, organised by CampdenFB, will be presented in Milan, Italy on 2 July at a gala dinner event attended by some of the Eurozone’s best-known families.
Since 2012, the event has become the leading awards for family-owned businesses on the continent and has toasted 45 winners and 200 shortlisted nominees over seven years.
Announcing the partnership, Nicholas Moody, editorial director at Campden Wealth, said: “The European Families in Business Awards have firmly established themselves as the premier awards for family businesses, and working in association with BNP Paribas Wealth Management will only enhance their importance.”
"We are very proud to sponsor the European Families in Business awards. These distinguished families have been key drivers over generations of economic growth and sustainability across the continent and it is an honour to recognise their achievements and to accompany them on this path.”
