Bean Counters To Tech Executives: "Get Involved in Legislation!"

TER members packed the room Tuesday to hear some of Atlanta's top accounting, tax and legal professionals discuss accounting and tax regulations' impact on technology companies. Moderated by Grant Collingsworth (Morris, Manning & Martin), the panelists - Wayne Reid and Seth McDaniel (Frazier & Deeter), and Terresa Tarpley and Bruce Wynn (Morris, Manning & Martin) - urged TER members to get involved in tax proposals by telling legislators what they support and oppose. Not a bad take-away for inauguration week. Price Harding (CarterBaldwin) took the reigns of TER as the 2009 President. Executives attending the breakfast event included Randall Tolbert (Preparis), David Funderburke (VersionOne), Jody Kelly (Dialog Medical), Mike Martin (Hotel Effectiveness) and Bill Leonard (Wm. Leonard & Co.). For more information about TER, visit http://www.ter-atlanta.com.
