Where: Davis Wright Tremaine Offices

Seattle, WA 98101

What: "Startup Legal Essentials" is an interactive workshop that highlights the key legal issues faced by every early-stage start-up. The legal underpinnings of your firm provide the foundation for future growth, for raising capital, for decision-making, and for your exit strategy. Mistakes made early on can cost companies thousands of dollars and hours of valuable time. Speakers for the program will be Joe Whitford, Sean McCann and Kraig Baker from Davis Wright Tremaine and Kent Johnson from Alexander Hutton Venture Partners.

The "Start-up Legal Essentials"; agenda will focus on:
* Choice of legal entity.
* Corporate formation.
* Issuance of founders stock.
* Employment agreements.
* Option and restricted stock plans.
* Friends and family/angel financings.

The morning workshop (from 8 am to noon at the Davis Wright offices) will provide practical do's and don'ts, as well as ample opportunities for attendee Q&A. Participants will also receive a notebook of handouts that will assist them in navigating their legal choices.

Join us at 8am for breakfast and networking, and included from Davis Wright Tremaine.

Cost: $50 members and $100 for non-members
