<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>About this webinar</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">This webinar will cover all aspects of Regulation Crowdfunding (Reg CF) from the rules (including November 2020 amendments), choosing a financial instrument, portal economics, how the industry has evolved since its 2016 inception, and why it's crucial for companies to hire legal representation to guide them through the process.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><strong>In this webinar, attendees will learn the following:</strong></span></p>
<ol>
	<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Equity crowdfunding is a new and exciting way to decentralize capital raising, meld existing (or future) customers with investors, and distinguish successful companies in the marketplace.</span></li>
	<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The industry has grown exponentially in the past year and new rules effective March 15, 2021, provide opportunities for companies to compliment or bypass more traditional capital-raising methods.</span></li>
	<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">But the process is complicated, it involves securities transactions worth potentially millions of dollars. Companies choosing the wrong portal or financial instrument can lock themselves into bad deals that thwart company progress.</span></li>
	<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">During and after a successful raise companies can encounter pitfalls with advertising rules and post-raise SEC compliance.</span></li>
	<li><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Legal representation is crucial to guide companies through the process to ensure companies stay compliant and use this capital-raising tool to its maximum potential.</span></li>
</ol>
