Dear Mr. Parsons,
Thank you very much for having posted this event! The agenda contains many substantive topics.
Are there materials from this conference that are available for purchase?
Do you conduct events on the east coast (e.g., the New York City Metro area)?
Do you plan on a future conference that will address International Accounting Standards and Equity Compensation?
Regards,
Joe Athy, CPA
Hi Joe,
There are many resources at www.NCEO.org - click on "Home" then click on "Equity Compensation Index Page" - there is a wealth of information and resources at your finger tips!
Good luck!
Joe,
Please feel free to contact me at william@equity-strategies.com and I will be happy to provide you with copies of the event presentations at no cost. There has been quite a lot of interest in an East-Coast session and we may be doing one in the future.
Cheers,
William
