Abstract

This study reflects on the specificities of family SMEs relative to values, culture and relationships with the territory (local context). “In the following sustainable and CSR-oriented strategies, are family businesses “assisted” by the presence of entrepreneurial values tied to and deriving from the social system in the territory in which they are located?” The aim of this work is to demonstrate that the consolidation of stable and durable relations between the family business and the local context depends on the presence of shared values between the members of the family and the stakeholders, both components of civil society within the same territory. Such values are the fruit of a given territory‟s civic traditions. They are themselves the result of an anthropological culture typical of the socio-economic environment in which the entrepreneur, the family, and the business are all rooted, in that they are expressions of a culture “of place” .
