Location! Location! Location! Opportunity Zone Incentives for Startups
Opportunity Zones (”OZs”) provide federal tax incentives for investments in state-designated low-income urban and rural communities by delaying tax on reinvested capital gains and forgiving tax on new capital gains. OZs provide a huge opportunity for Startups to give back to the community while at the same time accessing capital specifically targeted for OZ companies and taking advantage of substantial benefits from tax-free capital gains on assets, including intellectual property. John Posthumus of Polsinelli will moderate a panel that will include Jana Persky, Opportunity Zone Director for the State of Colorado, Josh Freed, CEO of Proximity, and Jeff Goldman, Shareholder at Polsinelli. This presentation will be a must for Tech Startups!
