Off the bat, that sounds pretty impressive, and I think your chances should be good.

When you present your family business, a few tips:
1. Focus heavily on their prior achievements, and the contributions you have made to them.
2. If you have any CONCRETE facts (projections are good) which can show the promise of potential your firm has, this can be very helpful.
3. If you will for sure inherit that lead of the firm, mention this EXPLICITLY
4. Be very SPECIFIC about your goals, both personally and for the firm (how much you want to grow it, how and where... etc.)

Also, somewhere in your application, get out a bit of info about your father. It sounds good. (I think it can work very well for example in a personal essay that asks about your greatest influences in your life, or something like that).

If you have any further questions, don't hesitate.

I am feeling so stupid while admitting this. I dont know how it skipped my mind. I was also one of the 50 people selected for the Reliance Stanford Fellowship Program this year. Will that have any bearing on my admit chances?

Good luck!
