Our next Transeo Academy will take place on the 12th of May.

This session will be presented by Peter Depauw, from Steward-Owned.

Peter Depauw is an economist and the initiator of ‘Steward-owned Belgium’, an emerging new worldwide movement. Steward-ownership rethinks the paradigms of ownership and is on the rise worldwide. It makes companies independent and purpose-oriented and is a promising tool for business succession.

40% of European business owners indicate they do not want to simply sell their life’s work to the highest bidder. For them, transferring ownership to engaged and capable steward-owners offers a strong guarantee that everything built within the company can continue. While still a fair share can still be received as a financial compensarion for the owners.

Steward-ownership can offer ultimate guarantees that businesses will prioritize their long-term goals over short-term profits, especially during pivotal moments. From Patagonia to Signal, Bosch, Carlsberg and The Guardian. From SME’s to Family Business 2.0. All about Rethinking Ownership.

The session will follow our dynamic format:

  • A concise 5-minute introduction
  • Followed by a 40-minute presentation
  • And then an interactive 15-minute discussions

As part of our commitment to fostering knowledge sharing and professional development, this session is members-only.
