Elisabetta Fabri, family principal of the private Italian luxury hospitality group Starhotels, is helping women in business achieve their potential by launching a new vocational training initiative.

Family business principals will be able to have their questions answered on what tax changes and the UK Budget means for family ventures at a new virtual forum hosted by KPMG Private Enterprise on 22 March.
