HSK 816 - Private Equity Governance

Course Description

The success of a start-up venture increases significantly when seasoned advisors can be recruited to provide critical oversight and guidance during its formative stages. An effective organization and governance structure enhances a venture’s ability to attract capital. Good governance also increases the speed at which good ideas reach the market.
While technologically strong, many Alberta start-up CEOs do not have the necessary time or background to acquire the business and governance skills required to lead their organization to success. The governance requirements of a start-up can be more complex and challenging than those of a more established firm. This program provides participants with key learnings necessary for overcoming these challenges and playing a significant role in developing Alberta’s next generation of technology firms.
