About: The CLO-Meet™ (Chief Legal Officer) is
designed to address legal issues related to capital raising,
start-ups and businesses in general. Our goal is two fold:
1) to provide members with factual information and practical
knowledge from leading legal professionals with start-up,
entrepreneurial and investment experience, 2) allow for exchange
of ideas and discuss issues faced by entrepreneurs. You'll
gain knowledge to do the things right from the start - that
will help you save thousands of dollars in professional service
fees and potentially millions more from potential legal disputes.
If you are interested in participating in the SAEC CLO-Group,
either as a speaker or as a group leader/planner, please send
