SVForum East Bay Event: What Does the JOBS Act Mean for Startup Founders June 20, 2012

What Does the JOBS Act Mean for Startup Founders

Topic Description: Congress recently passed the "Jumpstart Our Business Startups," or JOBS Act. On paper, it grants relief to entrepreneurs from some costly Securities and Exchange (SEC) regulations and reporting requirements, opens the doors to crowd-funding for startups, and allows non-accredited investors to participate in early-stage ventures. We won't know what SEC regulations implementing the JOBS Act will look like until early 2013. So, what does the JOBS Act mean for entrepreneurs right now...how can entrepreneurs make the most of this time...and can you start crowd-funding to some investors right now? Our experts - lawyers, accountants, and founders of crowd-funding startups - will bring you up to speed on the JOBS Act's provisions, answer your questions, and provide you a roadmap for funding startup ventures from now until next year. Join us on June 20th to supercharge your funding options!
