Of the event, he said, “In many ways, family businesses are the backbone of the UK economy. They not only provide vital services but enrich our communities. I look forward to the panel discussion and hope we can shed light on how Northern family businesses can future-proof themselves and thrive throughout the generations.”

In his role as head of one of the North West’s best breweries and pub operators, William Robinson knows more than most about how to run a successful family business.

He said, “Our family business has been around since 1838 so we know what it takes to achieve longevity. The panel discussion is a great opportunity for us to share our insight and to hear the views of others on how we can all approach the future with positivity.”
