Celebrating Massachusetts Family Business! Winners of the 2019 Massachusetts Family Business of the Year Awards were announced at the 13th annual Awards Program on June 12th, 2019.

Northeastern University Center for Family Business Hall of Fame inductees will be recognized for their exceptional leadership qualities and ability to set an example for future generations of their family business.

Spencer Fung, a Northeastern graduate and trustee, said that companies around the world are seeking to expand their operations beyond China because of the country’s trade war with the United States. But moving operations to other countries is not easy, he warned.

The collaboration between Northeastern University and Adtalem includes the launch of a new certificate in Artificial Intelligence for Financial Services.

“Northeastern is a leader in experiential learning, which is the necessary basis for learning how to be a value creator. They understand that to have a long, productive career in our global innovation economy, value-creation skills are essential,” Carlson says.

New methods of data collection and analysis have the potential to revolutionize the way that businesses are organized and run. D’Amore-McKim and Suffolk Construction are working together to make sure they are driving those changes.

“Northeastern is a highly valued and preferred university partner of Lindt specifically because of the six-month duration of the corporate residency program and their high caliber of students,” says Cloutier, Vice President, Human Resources at Lindt and Sprüngli.

BRIC countries make up only about 40 percent of the GDP of all emerging markets worldwide: the core concept underlying the Center for Emerging Markets’ sixth annual symposium.

“At the end of the day, we look to Northeastern to provide the kind of talent that will make our future business leaders,” Orange, General Manager, Military Repair & Logistic Services at Hamilton Sundstrand, says.

“When I only have one, then I’m short handed. When I have two, then I get my job done,” says Herzig-Marx, Director, Center for Distributed Analytics and Informatics Systems at Harvard Pilgrim Health Care.
