SharesPost Executive Forum
  SUMMARY
The emergence of the new online private capital markets platforms are radically changing the ways that growth companies raise capital and manage shareholder liquidity. Many are now recognizing that the definition of "business as usual" is evolving rapidly. As a result, many high impact legal and financial issues are being raised and frequently in high visibility events. From the Goldman Sachs-managed acquisition of Facebook shares to SEC inquiries into the "500 shareholder rule," the public and private markets may be fundamentally changing.

To discuss these issues and educate marketplace participants, SharesPost, with our co-sponsors, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati and NYSE Euronext, is hosting an invitation only conference on May 10th, from 2pm to 6pm at the Rosewood Sand Hill, in Menlo Park, CA. Thought leaders from the burgeoning marketplace will present the factors driving these changes and suggest best practices in responding to them. The conference is most suited to private company senior management teams (CEO/CFO/GC) and institutional investors seeking access to these companies.
