Manatt is pleased to co-sponsor a program discussing the current state of Regulation A+ capital raising transactions, titled “Regulation A+ Offerings—How They Are Done, Who Is Doing Them and What the Future Holds.” The program will discuss and analyze concluded and ongoing Reg A offerings, including a case study presented by companies that are currently engaged in placement agent-backed Reg A+ financings. The investment banking community will also cover the use of Reg A financing as an alternative to a standard IPO, as well as suggested structures to improve Reg A execution in the aftermarket. The program will take place April 19, 2018, in San Francisco.

Katherine Blair and Thomas Poletti, co-chairs of the firm’s capital markets practice, will speak at the program and lead this sponsorship for Manatt.
