The TechGC SPACs and Direct Listings Virtual Forum

Brooklyn’s Hayley Lattman (Geftman-Gold) builds upon more than two decades of experience as a New York City attorney and legal advisor with a particular focus on technology and communications. To inform her professional endeavors as a lawyer and counsel, Hayley Lattman holds active membership in TechGC.

TechGC is an invitation-only online community of venture capital fund and technology company general counsels that prizes education and mentorship as key components of its fundamental mission. To further these ends, it regularly sponsors continuing legal education events such as SPACs and Direct Listings Virtual Forum, which took place from February 2 through February 4, 2021.

Featuring a keynote address by Social Capital founder and CEO Chamath Palihapitiya, as well as presentations by more than a dozen member speakers, this event covered both direct listings and SPACs (special purpose acquisition companies) as two popular ways of going public without completing the traditional initial public offering process. Participants had the opportunity to earn seven continuing legal education credits while learning about the strategic benefits of both the direct listing and SPAC approaches.
