Croquet & Compliance
Croquet & Compliance
A new twist on the CFO Series from Carta, in partnership with Johnston Carmichael and Vault
We're taking our Croissants and Compliance roundtable series outdoors — trading the boardroom for the lawn. Following two sell-out breakfast sessions, we're back with a late summer edition. Same intimate format, same practical focus for VC fund CFOs. Just with a mallet in hand.
Many thanks as always to Steph Orde at Episode One for 'Championing' this activity.
Part One — Compliance Roundtables:
Join leading UK & US tax specialists from Johnston Carmichael and Vault for a focused deep dive into the tax questions keeping VC fund CFOs up at night — on both sides of the Atlantic. We'll cover the full spectrum: VAT, post-fund issues, investment structuring, PFIC considerations, US compliance, and general tax advisory. Walk away with clarity on what "good" looks like and concrete actions for your fund. As usual - Chatham House rules apply.
Part Two — Croquet and Cocktails:
Then we move outside. Join your peers for croquet and craft cocktails on one of London's most storied lawns — five acres of historic gardens surrounded by 400-year-old trees planted by Sir Francis Bacon himself. Whether you're a seasoned player or a first-timer, expect great company, some friendly rivalry (and probably a few creative interpretations of the rules).
