Samuel S. Guzik is Chairman and President of the Crowdfunding Professional Association, accelerating capital formation and ensuring investor protection.  He is also the Founder and Principal of Guzik & Associates, a law firm representing business, corporate and securities law.

NextGen founder Aubrey Chernick noted, "This year the SEC announced two forms of equity crowdfunding that allow all investors, new and accredited, to fund startups and emerging businesses. Because equity crowdfunding is a completely new area for most investors and most small businesses, there will be a large number of questions from everyone.
