It brings together researchers, academics, PhD scholars and industry professionals from around the world onto a single online stage.
This conference brings together venture capitalists, private equity professionals, policymakers, accountants, academic researchers, and startup founders to examine the unique challenges and emerging best practices in valuing unicorns (startups valued above $1B) and applying robust control-based accounting approaches.
