The Frutkin Law Firm‘s principal, Jonathan Frutkin, has been selected as a leading speaker for a workshop hosted by CrowdFund Beat and OTC Markets Group.

The one-day conference, to be held November 10 at the OTCQX Market Center in New York City, is a gathering of the industry’s thought leaders who crafted the regulations for the new Regulation A.

Regulation A allows companies to raise up to $50 million and has been referred to as a “Mini-IPO.” Frutkin was one of the national leaders in working with the Securities and Exchange Commission in finalizing the rules relating to the new Regulation A.

Frutkin will discuss the legal hurdles and role of advisors in a successful Regulation A offering. Additional conversation points include how to market an offering, navigating the transfer agent and escrow process and creating a secondary market for securities.

Frutkin’s practice focuses on business and corporate law, and he is a respected source in how companies can harness crowdfunding potential. In May 2013, he published “Equity Crowdfunding: Transforming Customers into Loyal Owners.”

“Being able to raise money publicly gives both investors and smaller companies an opportunity to grow,” says Frutkin. “Regulation A makes a big difference to companies in Arizona. And being able to share stories about growing Arizona companies on Wall Street is always an honor.”
