TheBlock and business and technology attorney Gordon Einstein are thrilled to announce their new workshop series - LEGAL STRATEGIES FOR FUTURE BILLIONAIRES. Launching this coming Thursday evening, October 29, 2026 at 6 pm.
📍 LOCATION: TheBlock, The Offices 3, One Central, Dubai World Trade Centre, Dubai.
💡🛠️📈 Workshop Topic: "MANAGING YOUR STARTUP'S EQUITY FOR SUCCESS"
👩🏫 Workshop Program: A startup's equity (ownership) is precious and every allocation of equity counts. Founders, angel Investors, VCs, key employees and contributors... everyone wants and maybe deserves a piece of the pie. Granting equity wisely and with an eye on the future can motivate founders and staff and align investors and partners. BUT, so many startups ignore or delay the tough challenges and decisions involved in allocating equity, don't have an equity plan/budget, don't document equity grants and expectations, and neglect keeping sufficient equity in reserve for future investors and key staff. DON'T BE LIKE THEM!
This fast moving "real life solutions you can actually use" workshop will cover:
the basics of managing equity
founder equity splits
equity vesting and founder protections
how to document equity grants
avoiding common cap table pitfalls and traps
trading equity for intellectual property/key assets
and much more!
🍹REFRESHMENTS : TheBlock is generously offering select beverages to the attendees.
