Creely Published in Tampa Bay Business & Wealth About Equity Incentive Programs for Employees and Contractors

Partner Curt Creely has authored an article for Tampa Bay Business & Wealth, "The Ups and Downs of Granting Equity to Employees and Contractors," about the design and implementation of equity incentive programs for employees and contractors.

The article notes that equity participation is often viewed as a critical “carrot” in the recruitment and retention of high-value employees and key independent contractors, especially in the technology, software and life science sectors. But it also points out that many companies aren’t familiar with the variety of forms in which equity grants can be made and suggests that owners often overlook the details and unexpected challenges associated with doing so.
