APABA Silicon Valley's Venture Capital Committee is proud to host a discussion led by David Wang, Chief Innovation Officer at Wilson Sonsini's Palo Alto Office.
The currency unit of the company is the share. The share plays a central role in transactions because it determines who controls the corporation and who benefits economically. The entire ecosystem around the creation, tracking and transfer of shares in the private market is currently going through a digital transformation, which has profound impactions for legal practice as well as legal business. This program will discuss the legal and technological background for this transformation, discuss current trends and issues in practice, and give an overview of the Open Cap Table Coalition, a collaborative effort between the top law firms, financial institutions and technology companies in the startup/VC ecosystem to standardize digital share data.
Approved for 1.0 hour of general CLE credit
