Resumo(s)
Family businesses are source of important innovation. The existing literature has made
important findings on what are the drivers of innovation and on the idiosyncratic functioning
of governance in family firms. However, little is known about the dynamics of the board of
directors and top management with respect to innovation. This thesis will shed light on this
relationship through a multi case-study of four different European companies. The thesis
suggests following findings, namely that boards are active on innovation, that management is
involved in shaping a board and innovation departments improve the innovation efforts of a
family business.
