Join us for our March CfIRA Educational Series on General Solicitation.
On September 23, 2013 Title II of the JOBS Act went into effect, legalizing general solicitation for startups and small businesses. However, many entrepreneurs have not taken advantage of the historic change in US securities laws because they do not feel comfortable with the implications. CFIRA will provide an overview of general solicitation, accreditation verification and everything else necessary for both founders and investors to feel comfortable with the new Regulation 506(c). T
Key Topics:
· Why is general solicitation a powerful tool for companies?
· What types of companies does general solicitation make sense for?
· What constitutes a general solicitation?
· What additional requirements come along with generally soliciting?
· Have companies been generally soliciting successfully thus far?
· If I choose not to generally solicit, how can I make sure I comply with 506(b)?
· What technology is out there that can help companies comply?
· What potential regulatory changes are still pending?
