#marketplaces

Jeremy Gottschalk, General Counsel and Marketplace Risk founder, discusses the importance of risk, trust and safety for marketplaces and platforms and encourages them to adopt mitigation strategies early. With the traditional focus being on growth, Jeremy believes VCs aren’t currently thinking about these issues. He founded Marketplace Risk out of a working group of lawyers, founders, execs and CEOs that originally met quarterly to discuss legal, trust, risk and safety issues and share their experiences. As it rapidly expanded, Jeremy decided it was an opportunity to aggregate relevant content and provide it to startups for free or via conferences at a low cost.
