Webinar – Practical EIP Insights

​Practical EIP Insights: What Founders, GCs & CFOs Need to Know

​The new Equity Incentive Plan (EIP) rules have fundamentally changed how startups and scale-ups can reward and retain talent in Germany.

​Equity is now more attractive than ever, but also significantly more complex. Poorly structured EIPs can create tax risks, employee confusion, and long-term legal and structural issues. Getting it right is no longer optional.

​To help founders and in-house teams navigate these changes, GAIA is hosting a practical webinar together with PXR, a leading law firm advising startups and scale-ups on equity and incentive structures.

​This session is designed to cut through the complexity and explain what actually matters in practice, without legal jargon.

​What you’ll learn

• ​The essentials of the German EIP reform, explained in plain language

• ​What has changed and what has not for startups and scale-ups

• ​Common pitfalls and mistakes we see in real-world EIP implementations

• ​Legal and tax frameworks that work in practice, not just on paper

​Who should attend

• ​Founders and management teams

• ​General Counsel and in-house legal teams

• ​CFOs, Finance, and HR leaders involved in equity planning

​If you are already running an EIP or planning to introduce one in the near future, this session will give you the clarity you need to make informed decisions.
