You are Invited (Equity Comp for Private Companies) - with registration discount

I am excited to tell you about a seminar that I think you will be interested in: 

Equity Compensation for Companies Staying Privately Owned: Plan Design, Liquidity, and Compliance, sponsored by the National Center for Employee Ownership (NCEO). 

The meeting will be held at Santa Clara University in the Benson Memorial Center on March 12, 2015.

I don't send put many direct emails for events, but I think this one is unique and long overdue.

For years, the standard thinking has been that companies will want to go public or, much more likely, be sold to an eager buyer, within a few to several years of starting. But more and more companies want to stay private for many years or even indefinitely. But how can these companies get liquidity for their employees and investors and stay private?

This meeting will focus on practical solutions, such as redeeming shares, internal markets, secondary markets, and sales to an employee stock ownership plan. It will also explore best practices in plan design, administration, and communications in entrepreneurial companies. This one day meeting will allow you to hear from leading experts, work through specific issues in structured interactive sessions, meet other professionals from similar companies and periodically break into small groups to exchange ideas and information.

I will be presenting at the seminar and think you will find it useful.  To view the complete program click here.  I am  pleased to be able to offer you this presenter’s special: register before the end of the day on February 12th to receive $25 off the early bird price of $95/person (NCEO members) and $120 per person (nonmembers) (use discount code:ECWALTER).
