About
Join Global HR Platform Remote and award winning law firm Gilbert & Tobin for a lively happy hour and meet up. The session will also feature an eye-opening exploration of the challenge of managing equity in a way that benefits everyone—from founders to employees. Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) can be a powerful tool for attracting talent and creating the next generation of founders and investors, by democratising ownership and providing essential liquidity.However, with great power comes great responsibility—and risk. Experts from Remote and Gilbert & Tobin will lead an interactive discussion around how ESOPs can offer much-needed liquidity and ownership opportunities. We'll also dive into the controversies, such as restrictive 'lousy leaver' provisions and the risk of equity dilution that can leave early employees feeling sidelined. With local debates heating up around ESOPs, this session is essential for talent, entrepreneurs, and investors looking to understand the full impact of these plans on Australia’s dynamic tech landscape. Don’t miss this chance to engage with industry leaders and rethink the future of equity, while also enjoying some end-of-day hospitality and connecting with others from the eco-system.
