Abstract
Acknowledging the need for a structured and integrative debate to kickstart the literature on family offices, this panel symposium aims to advance scholarly research by informing scholars on specific research opportunities and challenges in the field. Our panel consists of leading experts in the field who, collectively, have been cited over 90,000 times and serve(d) on the editorial board of leading entrepreneurship and strategy journals, including the Journal of Business Venturing, Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, Family Business Review, and many others. In sum, this panel should invigorate a pronounced and interactive discussion on how to move the field forward.
