This comprehensive book delves into the intricate interplay between families, firms, and regions, exploring the profound impact these relationships have on regional economic and social development. While the participation of family businesses in economic activities has been a prevalent phenomenon since pre-industrial societies, its significance has evolved over time and across diverse spatial contexts. Regrettably, this important dimension has often been overlooked in family business and regional studies. Recognizing this research gap, the book aims to deepen our understanding of the crucial role played by family firms in the regional economy. Specifically, it delves into two seldom studied questions: firstly, what role do family firms play in regional development? Secondly, how do different spatial regional contexts shape family firm operations and performance?

To address these questions, Family Business and Regional Development presents a novel model of spatial familiness, employing themes such as productivity, networks, and competitiveness to shed new light on family businesses. Moreover, it approaches the juxtaposition between family business and regional studies to foster the cross-fertilization of ideas, theories, and research methods between these two fields. By bringing together renowned experts in entrepreneurship, regional economics, and economic geography, this book offers invaluable insights for advanced students, researchers, and policymakers engaged in family firms, regional studies, and economic geography.

In conclusion, Family Business and Regional Development is a groundbreaking work that contributes significantly to our understanding of the complex dynamics between families, firms, and regions. By examining these relationships in greater detail, the book provides valuable insights for policymakers, entrepreneurs, and researchers seeking to promote sustainable economic and social development in diverse spatial contexts.
