Presenter: Matt Bisturis - Schwabe Law Offices
Description: This session will provide an overview of key legal issues that business owners and managers must be aware of before taking someone else’s money. Whether you are considering an outside investment, a private loan, bringing in a new partner, or even crowdfunding, there are unique and critical steps that must be taken to comply with federal and state securities laws. Come prepared to learn about the regulatory framework associated with raising money, and some new options in Washington such as equity crowdfunding.
