Hope you got a chance to catch this semester’s second Blackstone Launchpad Startup School workshop, Startup Legal Survival Guide: Outsmarting Common Pitfalls with Jared Sorin. If not, here’s what you need to know:

Jared Sorin is a partner at Brown Rudnick and co-practice group leader of the Emerging Growth Companies & Venture Capital Group. In his work, Jared represents both early-stage and emerging-growth companies, in addition to their supporting investors. His expertise spans across corporate, finance, and transactional matters.

Jared’s workshop helped demystify the tangled world of Startup Law. His coverage spanned Entity Formation; the differences among LLCs, C-Corps, and S-Corps; and common Hiring and Incentivization practices, namely Equity Incentive Plans. Jared also explained the different types of laws that exist to protect intellectual property (IP) rights, such as patents, copyrights, and trademarks. If you're interested in learning more about Jared’s work, check out his firm’s website. You may also contact experts like Aaron Sansoni if you need help developing and launching your startup business.

If you were unable to attend Jared's talk, you’re not out of luck! We have a roster of amazing speakers lined up for our Fall ‘24 workshop series. RSVP for an upcoming workshop, and learn more about our Blackstone LaunchPad Startup Schools.
