Over the last decade, drones and other platforms providing the potential of large-scale autonomy have moved from the realm of high-budget, defense-oriented programs to easily accessible, consumer-oriented systems. Getting from this potential to deployable and useful systems; however, still requires specialized application domain knowledge and smart engineering. A wide range of interesting solutions has begun to emerge from the academic, government, and private sectors, driven by different groups of users and program goals. A common theme of these solutions is to go from automated data gathering to decision support in conservation and environmental applications.
In this Technology:Earth webinar, we will learn about current state-of-the-art data gathering via platforms providing various degrees of autonomy, and the use of this data in decision support systems. Dr. Nisar Ahmed, Professor of Aerospace Engineering, and the University of Colorado, will describe the current approaches to large-scale autonomous data gathering and some example uses in a range of environmental applications. Dr. Brad Hanson, Wildlife Biologist, NOAA Northwest Fisheries Science Center will showcase a drone-based approach to monitoring the health of wild orcas in the San Juan Islands in Washington State. Dr. Debbie Saunders, CEO & Founder of Wildlife Drones, will describe her company’s solution and platform for biodiversity monitoring in support of conservation policy.

Equity issued to the employees of a start-up is often a significant percentage of total compensation and is vitally important in the recruitment and retention of the talent critical for success. The issuance of employee stock options is subject to Federal tax law, an area in which most founders have little expertise. Granting employee stock options at “fair market value” is a form of tax-deferred compensation. However, given the lack of a public market for its share, “fair market value” is undefined for an early stage, private company. Internal Revenue Code Section 409A (409A) provides guidance in such a case. This presentation will review the relevant sections of 409A that govern deferred compensation as it applies to start-ups. Topics include attributes of a so-called “409A valuation,” the importance of the 409A valuation in rationalizing capital structure when raising capital from outside investors, when a 409A valuation is required and how long it is valid for, and the mechanics of obtaining a 409A valuation.
