Who's Coming to the Forum?

We're just six weeks out from the debut of GEO's National Equity Compensation Forum, and we're growing more excited with each passing day. GEO members truly understand the importance behind each of our events. Keith Pearce, Intel's Perceived Value Program Manager, explains his involvement, the relevance of this new event, and why he's attending the Forum.  We release videos about the Forum and GEO on a regular basis. Be sure to check out the latest on our YouTube channel or our website. We look forward to seeing you at the Forum!

Appreciating the Complexities of Equity Compensation

Equity compensation strategies have reached new levels of complexities, and while it's imperative to stay up to speed with emerging issues and trends in a multitude of topics, it's equally important stay abreast of what solution providers can offer. That's where strategy meets execution and, as veteran members know, where GEO excels with its events.
