Getting Started FAQ
What can I do to start preparing for an IPO?
Most importantly your company leadership should be on the same page about an IPO. If that's the case, you can get a head start by:
- certifying your financial statements
- creating a first draft business write up with financial forecasts
- begin meeting with the buy-side (it's now legal to test the market, and we can help you do just that)
- and choose your underwriter
When is the right time to take my company public?
Assuming your company is able to raise a minimum of $15 million, there are great examples of success when a company goes public early including Intel, Adobe, and Genentech.
