Talk Videos from Global Capital Summit 2019

My April 2019 book, The Fairshare Model, presents an idea for a performance-based capital structure for a venture-stage initial public offering--a public raise of venture capital. The concept can be applied to a blockchain venture that raises equity capital via an initial coin offering. I call it the Fairshare Model because it balance and aligns the interests of investors and employees. I can be reached at karl@fairsharemodel.com.
