Event Details
The venture market is choppier than it's been in years, and the GC's job is changing with it. Liquidity takes longer to reach. Fund structures are being rebuilt mid-stream, and LPs, founders, and portfolio companies are all asking more of the firms behind them, often at the same time.
Today's VCGC has grown well past "legal coverage." You're in the room for calls that used to sit above the job description: what to disclose, what to defend, and when speed is worth the risk.
Join us at the 2026 VCGC Conference in Newport Beach, a safe harbor for candid, closed-door conversation with a select group of peers navigating the same tides. Expect real discussion and the relationships you'll lean on the next time a hard call lands on your desk.
We have negotiated a discounted nightly rate starting at $550 + taxes and fees. The room block will close on Friday, October 2, 2026, or when sold out, whichever happens first. The booking link will be sent in your confirmation email.
Cancellation Policy
The full cost of the room, including room rate, taxes, and fees, will be charged at the time of booking. Reservations can be canceled or modified until Monday, October 5, 2026. Please note that all payments become non-refundable and non-transferable as of this date. Cancellations made after Monday, October 5, 2026 will not be eligible for a refund.

Can I arrive earlier or stay later at the hotel?
YES! We have secured our heavily discounted rates at The Resort at Pelican Hill for three days pre and post this Conference, and we'd love to see our members take advantage of this discount. See hotel information in your registration confirmation email for how to book extra nights.
