An employee share ownership plan (ESOP) is an employee benefit that can give employees a share in the equity of a company.
While many companies have or intend to implement an ESOP plan for their employees, frequently they are not implemented effectively and the benefits of them not communicated well. It is important for founders, employees and investors to understand the implications of an ESOP and the impact it can have on the business.
In this session we will discuss the following from both the founders and investors perspectives on:
- How to design and implement an ESOP, with a focus on high-growth companies
- How share options work in practice
- How an ESOP makes up part of the remuneration package for employees, and understanding the value of an option from an employee's perspective
- Cap table implications
- Pro tips for good communications and tricky issues
