Vice-Chancellor Travis Laster of the Delaware Court of Chancery: A Discussion of Fiduciary Duties

This video features a discussion with Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster and UC Law SF Professor Abe Cable on the Trados case, a landmark decision that addressed the question to whom fiduciary duties are owed when the interests of common and preferred stockholders’ conflict in VC-backed companies.

The video was originally recorded for participants of the VC-Backed Board Academy (VCBA), a new executive education program for directors of venture-backed companies organized by the University of California Center for Business Law San Francisco, in partnership with Cooley and Nasdaq. The program is taking place at Cooley’s SF offices on March 8th, 2024. If you’re a director of a venture-backed company, you should check it out and visit the website at uclawsf.edu/vcba
