A Message from Our Director

Marjan Houshmand

Family businesses are more than companies. They are the places where heritage, hard work, and aloha come together across generations. At the Family Business Center of Hawaiʻi, we are committed to supporting the families who carry these enterprises forward through community connection, education, and research. Founded as one of the oldest and longest-running family business centers in the United States, FBCH reflects the enduring partnership between Hawaiʻi's business community and the Shidler College of Business. Mahalo for being part of this journey with us.

Thanks,

Marjan Houshmand
Faculty Director, Family Business Center of Hawaiʻi
