Family business transmission and family office

A holistic approach to securing the future

The transition of a family business is a complex process that combines strategic, financial, and emotional aspects. At Teleos, we provide professional and sensitive support in planning intergenerational transmission, whether intra-family or external. We ensure that each step is well-prepared to facilitate a smooth transition between generations while maintaining and enhancing the company’s performance. During liquidity events, we also assist in reflection and the establishment of your Family Office.

Coordination of specialized third parties

Comprehensive support

Leveraging a substantial national and international network, we collaborate with specialized third parties on

  • financial matters (business valuation, investment operations), 

  • strategic matters (in-house company specialists or external consultants, as necessary), and

  • wealth management (private banks, specialized fiduciaries, notaries, and lawyers).

  • This also extends to human resources and education, in partnership with leading business schools.

Our commitment to harmony and sustainable performance

At Teleos, we deeply believe that every entrepreneurial family, and the individuals who compose it, have the potential to achieve their fulfillment by cultivating genuine, quality relationships—with themselves, others, and the world around them. We are convinced that these relationships form the foundation of sustainable performance and meaningful impact.

Our mission is to guide you through the structural processes needed to align the family around a collective long-term project, fostering qualitative relationships that lead to better being, better living, and better decision-making together.

By enabling you to fully realize your potential, both individually and collectively, we aim to ensure the durability of these achievements for future generations and the stakeholders they serve.

Why Teleos? Teleos, from the ancient Greek τέλλω, means "to fulfill or fully realize." This is what we strive to achieve for you in all our guidance.

  • Testimonial

    The transition from the third to the fourth generation of UCB family shareholders had been carefully planned for more than a decade by my aunts, uncle and father. My three cousins and I knew that we were likely to work together for at least twenty years to support the future innovations and growth of UCB. The competition of the succession process and numerous other unstated issues had somewhat come in the way of our deep friendship and mutual respect. In less than two days of work, Sophie helped us come to the core of those issues, feel them, express them clearly and move forward with a stronger than ever sense of unity and purpose. Those two days have nourished our interactions over the last years.
