Venture firms are operating in a more demanding environment, where liquidity outcomes take longer to realize, fund structures keep evolving, and stakeholder expectations are higher across the board. In that setting, legal is increasingly central to how firms maintain alignment, move quickly, and protect trust.
The VCGC role has expanded well beyond “legal coverage.” Today’s VCGCs are strategic operators who help partners make disciplined decisions, coordinate across fundraising and firm operations, and navigate the gray areas that come with speed, competition, and scrutiny.
Join us at the 2026 VCGC Conference in Newport Beach for candid, closed-door conversation with peers. The program is built for real discussion, practical takeaways, and the relationships senior legal leaders rely on when the next hard call lands.
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.
TechGC is a private, invitation-only community for General Counsel, Chief Legal Officers, and Heads of Legal at high-growth tech companies—from venture-backed startups to public tech companies and venture capital firms. Founded to solve a simple problem—that no one teaches you how to be a GC at a scaling company—TechGC was built by GCs, for GCs. What started as a small group of startup GCs sharing advice has grown into the leading network for legal leaders in technology.
TechGC is part of The L Suite, a broader community for in-house legal executives across industries. Within The L Suite, there are also dedicated communities for General Counsel of large enterprises (EnterpriseGC), as well as highly curated experiences for DeputyGCs, senior in-house counsel, and legal operations leaders.
As a TechGC member, you get the best of both worlds—a deeply curated, tech-only network of peers facing the same challenges as you, along with access to the broader L Suite community, events, and resources.
