STRT Portfolio Meetup:
Mastering ESOPs

About the event

Attracting and retaining top talent is the cornerstone of every successful startup. But how do you design an Employee Stock Option Program (ESOP) that actually works for both the company and the employees?

At this STRT Portfolio Meetup, we bring together seasoned founders and legal experts to peel back the curtain on ESOP structures. We will explore the practicalities of setting up programs in various jurisdictions, navigating tax implications, and learning from real-world success stories.

What we will cover

• Structuring basics: How to design a program that scales.
• ​International perspectives: Differences between legal forms and countries.
• ​Practical pitfalls: Common mistakes to avoid during implementation.
• ​Founder insights: First-hand experience with ESOPs and exits.
