Join Charlie O'Donnell of nextNYC and Amit Majumder, Head of Equity Management at Qapita, for a practical, strategic webinar on building an equity budget that actually holds up over time. We’ll cover option pool sizing, role-based equity decisions, dilution realities, and how early choices ripple into future rounds, hiring, and board conversations. If you want to avoid cap table surprises—and make equity decisions you won’t have to unwind later—this session will give you a clear framework to plan with confidence.","access":{"free":null,"application_required":null},"audience_roles":["founders","service_providers"],"audience_orientation":"nontechnical","company_stage":null,"interaction":["content"],"topics":["venture","fundraising"],"modality":"virtual","meal_context":"none","series":null,"mentions":[{"text":"nextNYC","kind":"organization","subtype":"community","role":"affiliation"},{"text":"Qapita","kind":"organization","subtype":"company","role":"affiliation"},{"text":"Amit Majumder","kind":"person","subtype":null,"role":"speaker"},{"text":"Charlie O'Donnell","kind":"person","subtype":null,"role":"speaker"}],"sources":[{"id":"nextnyc","class":"newsletter","publisher":"nextNYC","first_observed_at":"2026-01-26T12:45:44.0000000Z","last_observed_at":"2026-01-26T12:45:44.0000000Z"}],"discovery":{"first_party":[],"newsletter":["nextnyc"],"provider":null},"basis":{"audience_roles":{"founders":"observed","service_providers":"inferred"},"topics":{"venture":"inferred","fundraising":"inferred"},"audience_orientation":"inferred","company_stage":null,"interaction":"observed","modality":"observed"},"canonical_url":null,"first_seen":"2026-01-26T12:45:44.0000000Z","last_seen":"2026-01-26T12:45:44.0000000Z","observation_count":1}
