8:00AM - 10:00AM | Palo Alto, CA | Preventing and Responding to Sexual Harassment in the Workplace
California law (AB 1825) mandates at least two hours of supervisor training on sexual harassment prevention at companies with 50 or more employees. For some companies, on-site training is expensive, especially if the company has only a limited number of supervisors.
Cooley will be hosting training at our offices in an effort to provide "catch-up" training for newly promoted supervisors and for those who may have missed past training sessions. We invite you to send supervisors in need of training to one of these programs.
For more information, please email Eileen Caliva or call (650) 843-5071.

8:00AM - 1:30PM | Menlo Park, CA | SVASE Portfolio Forum - Hiring, Incentivizing & Firing a World Class Executive Team
One of the most critical things a startup founder must do is develop a top-notch executive team, which usually has a very different profile from the team at an established company – they have to roll up their sleeves to be individual contributors, be team players with other executives, while at the same time build their own team to deliver top notch output. Not an easy task!
Our panel of an experienced VC, a serial startup founder and an executive recruiter will explore these topics and more, illustrated by their real life war stories, to give you valuable insights into this complicated topic.
For more information, please email Eileen Caliva or call (650) 843-5071.
