The topic chosen ‘Muslim Family Business Model” – Moving from Person-led to Process-driven – Challenges for Muslim businesses’ was very relevant as most if not all businesses of the members are family oriented.

The lecture presented very a practical approach to ensuring the continuity of businesses and also dealt with issues which are generally taken lightly or not even thought about until one had to face them to realize the gravity.

The questions posed by the participants proved that the they truly made good use of this experienced speakers time and knowledge.

The lecture was made possible due to the generosity of 4 Prominent Community Business Houses which sponsored Mr Baig’s visit to Sri Lanka
