As most early employees of startups inherently take a risk when they hop onboard, how should they be rewarded for their ambition? How should you think about your company’s stock option pool? Joining us to make sense of pay and incentives is Katharina Wilhelm, Partner at Index Ventures.

Talent is a crucial bottleneck for startups and rewarding talent plays a key role for sustained growth.
