Scaling Up? Important Lessons and Legal Insights for Your Startup's Growth
Lane Powell's Startups & VC Summer Series

Lane Powell's Startups & VC Summer Series is back for its second year! This engaging program offers entrepreneurs, executives, and investors the chance to learn, connect, and grow. 

Why Attend?

Too often, startups juggle between multiple priorities like product development, customer acquisition, and financial management. When resources are low, incorporating long-term legal strategies can be overwhelming. Inadequate measures covering data privacy, employment, and IP can hinder growth, derail equity financing, or lead to costly setbacks. This program will highlight critical lessons to avoid these pitfalls and pave the way for successful scaling and sustainable growth.

What You Will Learn

• Data Privacy: Learn which data privacy laws apply to your business and the value of safeguarding data to effectively build customer trust.

• Employment & HR: Hear lessons learned from sizing up, sizing down, and managing your team(s).

• Raising Equity Financing: Master the intricacies of raising capital. Understand how to navigate due diligence, negotiate deal terms, and comply with securities laws.

• Trademark Protection & IP Policies: Secure your innovations and brand.

• Website & App Terms and Conditions: Ensure compliance, mitigate risk, and protect your online presence.

Who Should Attend?

• Entrepreneurs

• Founder Teams

• Inventors

• Consultants, Mentors, Coaches

• Investors

What to Expect

Each program kicks off with a brief networking mixer, followed by attorney-led talks with Q&A, and wrap up with drinks and bites during our social hour with attendees from our local startup community.
