General Counsels of venture-backed startups face a unique set of challenges resulting from operating in a hypergrowth environment. Headcounts grow exponentially, regulatory gray areas and traps are prevalent, legal budgets are lean, media scrutiny can be intense and the pressure and stakes are high.
TechGC is bringing together startup and venture capital GCs from across the country for a full day of GC-to-GC learning and networking to share best practices and exchange ideas around these issues.
