FBUK Policy Agenda - Building Britain for Generations

Building Britain for Generations: A Policy Agenda for Family Businesses

Summary of Recommendations M Mid-Sized Family Business Focus

A New Definition and Strategy Adopt a shared definition of medium-sized companies across all Government departments, to enable consistency of approach and focus. This should be those with revenues between £10 million and £100 million and 50 to 499 employees. Adopt a targeted strategy to support the growth and resilience of medium-sized firms. This should include a dedicated concierge/ account management service as the central access point for medium‑sized firms, providing streamlined guidance across support programmes, investment routes, and regulatory processes.

Export Finance for Mid-Sized Firms

Assess the utilisation and impact of export funds, twice yearly, to ensure that support for international trade continues to deliver measurable growth outcomes for private and family-owned businesses. University Collaboration with Mid-Sized Family Firms Ensure UK Research and Innovation implements the recommendations within the ‘Deepening University- Investor Links’ report in a way that broadens university–business collaboration beyond spin-outs and venture-backed firms.
