Thanks for the tag, Luke. Hi Jory. One of the best way I find to bone up on the regulatory environment applicable to a particular industry is to review public SEC registration statements filed by companies in the same industry, and which contain detailed and up to date information on regulatory considerations, trends and other relevant industry information. You can find them in the Edgar database at redacted.

Regulatory compliance is definitely a moving target, especially with the increasing scrutiny across industries. On the tech side, particularly when it comes to privacy, security, and compliance frameworks like SOC 2, HIPAA, CMMC, and GDPR, I work with a great advisory firm that helps ensure these standards are met annually. Their expertise allows me to stay ahead of evolving regulations while keeping my investments compliant and secure. Proactively integrating compliance into operations from the start has been key to mitigating risks and avoiding surprises down the road.
