CCEI Traction Workshop: Legal Basics for Startups
Tuesday, November 19th, 2024
06:30 PM - 07:30 PM
Virtual
In this session, you will learn about three general topics affecting new businesses. First, we’ll walk through “Choice of Entity and Governance Documents,” to help you determine what type of legal entity you would operate your business through—whether it’s a partnership, corporation, limited liability company, non-profit, or a host of other potential options—and then learn about the required regulatory filings and operating documents needed for each type. Next, we’ll review some key issues in governance, which will teach you about the duties of founders to other co-founders, investors, and interested third parties. Finally, we’ll discuss “Legal Audit,” which will be more interactive and walk you through how to conduct a regulatory and contractual audit for a business.
