Family businesses.

A multigenerational family business is something to be proud of and deserves to be celebrated. As the business passes from one generation to the next (or is sold), its story can easily be lost. CONTEXT Studios helps protect and preserve your family business legacy.

- Honour those who built & ran it over time.
- Document the evolution of your multi-generational family business (milestones, successes & challenges).
- Share values & lessons to inspire the next generation of leaders.
- Preserve the stories of leaders who built the business or who are retiring.
- Multigenerational family business leaders and their marketing, social media & PR teams.
- Family Enterprise Canada members.
- Family office advisors, wealth managers & estate planners. (Makes a great gift!)
- Share with employees & other stakeholders.
- Post on your company website, intranet & social media channels.
- Play at a product launch, business gathering, retirement, memorial & other events.
- Share with your family & future generations.
When leaders want to commemorate an anniversary or milestone, it typically becomes a book-writing project. A task that can take months or years to complete. While this can result in a beautiful book, it may never actually get read. Today, people are engaging with video and audio more than with books. They want videos to watch on their phones or audio to listen to on the go. This is how today’s leaders are sharing their stories.
