Through this partnership, ADGMA and ADFBC will jointly design and deliver advanced training and awareness programmes, educational seminars, and capacity-building initiatives tailored to the unique needs of family businesses in Abu Dhabi. Areas of focus include family governance, succession planning, wealth management, understanding global best practices, leadership and entrepreneurship development and skills for resolving family conflict, all of which are key pillars for sustainable growth and generational continuity.
The collaboration also seeks to leverage the Academy’s extensive research capabilities, global network of academic and industry experts, as well as resources to develop insightful thought-leadership, practical workshops, and digital learning tools and platforms. Dedicated events with international experts and speakers will also be designed and hosted to address the evolving needs of family business members.
These initiatives are aimed at enhancing the knowledge ecosystem for family businesses, supporting family business projects and initiatives and empowering future leaders to navigate evolving challenges with resilience, preparedness and strategic insight.
The MoU was signed in the presence of H.E. Shamis Ali Al Dhaheri, Second Vice Chairman and Managing Director of the Abu Dhabi Chamber, and H.E.

Commenting on the MoU, Mansoor Jaffar stated, "This partnership with the Abu Dhabi Family Business Council reinforces ADGM Academy’s commitment to driving national development and knowledge transfer. Family businesses form the backbone of the UAE’s economy, and together, we aim to equip them with the tools, skills, and strategic foresight to thrive across generations, with both agility and confidence."
