Fostering the Next Generation of Family Business Leaders

FBN Asia's Singapore Country Committee is excited to invite you to the Conversation with Dr. Daniela Schumann (Rudolf Group) on Tuesday, 29 April 2025, from 6:30-9:00pm.

 

As guardians of a family business with over 100 years of legacy, Wolfgang and Daniela Schumann, parents to three energetic teenage children, have dedicated significant time into discussing the best ways to transition their business to the next generation. The question, "How to raise responsible future shareholders?", lacks a perfect, ready-made answer.

 

With their commitment to family education beginning much earlier, they established a family school in 2023, with the goal of fostering responsible, engaged, and active future owners.

 

Don't miss the opportunity to join this exclusive event where Daniela, joined by her eldest daughter, will share their experiences and insights. Be inspired to deepen your engagement in family education -not just to ensure business prosperity but also to foster a commitment to long-term ownership and stewardship.

 

This event is complimentary for FBN Members. Venue details will be shared upon registration.


As space is limited, please register now.

About

  • Dr. Daniela Schumann

    Dr. Daniela Schumann

    Dr. Daniela Schumann is a trained lawyer, attorney and judge and holds a phD in legal studies from Max-Planck-Institut at LMU University, Munich, Germany. After starting her career as an M&A lawyer in an American law firm she joined the Federal Government of Bavaria, Germany, where she has worked in various positions including chief of staff at the Treasury for over 20 years. She felt that this gave her a chance to contribute to society and follow her passion for politics.

    Coming from a business family herself, she finally engaged in her husband’s 100-year-old family business RUDOLF when it needed a family coordinator to re-organize the family´s businesses and assets, as well as prepare the next generation for their responsibility. She joined Rudolf´s supervisory board in 2019.

    Daniela focuses on topics such as succession planning, coordination of legal advisors, wealth management and shareholder education. With her husband Dr. Wolfgang Schumann she has three teenage children.
