Entrepreneurial succession is a decisive phase of any company’s life cycle and implies the affected entrepreneurs and their families with a variety of challenges. Every fifth SME in Switzerland is facing a company succession over the coming years - and every succession must be approached individually. At the beginning of this complex process, however, everyone has to think about who will eventually take over the company. Non-family successions have gained importance in recent years, while family-internal solutions tend to decline due to social changes. But regardless of whether the company is handed over within the own family or to employees or whether ultimately a strategic buyer has to be found in the market: A diligent and professional succession process is essential to successfully master the various emotional and execution challenges.
