Chris Russell Speaks on Legal Requirements for Crowdfunding at CleanStart Workshop

Attorney Chris Russell presented “Regulation Crowdfunding” at a CleanStart crowdfunding workshop on June 20. The workshop explored both equity and rewards-based methods of securing funding for a tech startup.

In his presentation, Russell addresses such areas as:

• which types of companies can use crowdfunding,
• how much money can a company raise,
• forms that must be filed and disclosures that must be made,
• who can invest, and
• how to conduct the offering.
