The Business Legacy Conference (BLC) | Edition 1

1. Intro

From Success to Significance.

Most businesses are built to sell; the great ones are built to last. In East Africa, less than 15% of family-owned enterprises successfully navigate the transition to the third generation. The Business Legacy Conference (BLC) is a quarterly high-level forum designed for the architects of the region’s future economy—Founders, C-Suite Executives, and Investors who are moving beyond quarterly profits toward century-long impact.

On Wednesday, 28 May 2025, join 100 of your peers at Capital Club Nairobi for an intensive, breakfast-led exploration of institutionalization, succession, and the art of building an enduring legacy.

2. THE EXPERIENCE (What to Expect)

This is not a mass-market "talk shop." BLC is a curated, half-day executive briefing focused on actionable frameworks and raw, peer-to-peer exchange.

The 100-Year Vision: An opening keynote on shifting from "Owner-Operator" to "Institutional Architect."

Wealth, Wisdom & Transition: A candid panel discussion on the friction points of handing over the reins.

The Governance Masterclass: A deep dive into the legal and financial structures that protect family and corporate legacies.

The Legacy Interview: A closing fire-side chat with one of East Africa’s most respected veteran industrialists.
