On October 7, DLA Piper will host the Technology Leaders Summit, where technology leaders, influential innovators and policymakers convene to discuss the future of innovation. At the Summit, DLA Piper will release the results of its fourth, semi-annual Technology Leaders Forecast Survey, which will gauge the perspectives of leading technology and venture capital executives regarding the business climate and operating environment for technology companies.

We invite you to participate in the survey (on or before September 22).  In appreciation, respondents will receive a copy of the final report and survey results.

I am a corporate and securities attorney who represents emerging growth companies and the investors who invest in such companies. I serve as the global co-chair of the DLA Piper’s technology sector, the chair of DLA Piper’s Northwest emerging growth and venture capital practice, and the managing partner of DLA Piper’s Seattle office. My practice focuses on securities offerings, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and general corporate law. My clients are individual entrepreneurs, early stage, venture-backed and public companies and venture capital investors. I have assisted my clients in closing hundreds of seed/venture financings and M&A transactions and numerous initial and secondary public offerings. I enjoy helping startup companies navigate their way into successful enterprises.
