Great roundtable discussion yesterday at Fortune Brainstorm Tech on how investors are coping with the new reality of the IPO markets. With companies still flush with cash from the venture boom of 2021 and 2022 yet struggling to generate the necessary financials for cautious public market investors, I think tech companies will continue to turn to PE firms, who traditionally will pay much lower multiples than venture firms chase. Thanks to Jessica Mathews for expertly guiding the conversation and to Fortune Brainstorm for assembling such an insightful group. #FortuneBrainstorm

Why companies some companies wont go public right away going public right away According to Tech Crunch and Pitchbook Late Stage Investors have a lot of influence on IPO markets for the following reasons. 1) Strategic timing on liquidation preferences of the investors and founders 2) Market analysis 3) Maturity of the secondary market #ipo #investors #venturecapital #privateequity

Exited Founders - >1000 In recent times, we have successfully facilitated over 50 off-market deals. Our Operator Network not only connected the dots between companies and M&A advisors but also introduced board advisors to ensure seamless transactions and strategic guidance. Using the VNXD Operator Network gives our VC, PE and Family Office clients access to thousands of exited founders. This extensive access allows us to provide unique insights and opportunities, making each connection within our ecosystem even more valuable. The power and speed of the ecosystem have proven phenomenal. Our platform is designed to maximize opportunities for founders and investors alike and just this week we have seen 10 exited founders introduced to a varied mix of investors from EIS Funds to significant PE firms. That great blend of online AND offline facilitation that only Virtualnonexecs offers. This commitment to enhancing the deal-making process with precision and speed is growing at pace and our new module (set to be released in May) will take it to a whole new level. We help businesses to connect, negotiate, and grow. If you're looking to explore off-market opportunities or need strategic board-level advice, there's no better time to join us. Visit https://lnkd.in/e6NUmwbX to learn how we can accelerate your business journey. #Virtualnonexecs #MergersAndAcquisitions #OffMarketDeals #BusinessGrowth #StrategicAdvisory #InnovationInDealmaking #ExitedFounders

“An IPO is an excellent opportunity for global validation and exposure for your company. Once people know and understand who you are, they can become your customers, partners, and shareholders.” This is a quote in my book; The Entrepreneur’s IPO: The Insider’s Roadmap to Taking Your Company Public. The quote is from one of the most famous traders on Wall Street- Peter Tuchman. I am grateful that Peter was willing to provide his insights from more than three decades of trading at the NYSE to the book and for his ongoing friendship. I know the mega IPOs of industry giants often dominate the headlines, but there's a lesser-known avenue that holds tremendous potential for early-stage, pre-revenue companies worldwide. Contrary to the belief that only unicorns and revenue behemoths can go public, today's markets offer a unique opportunity for micro-cap and small-cap IPOs. These smaller IPOs may not grab the spotlight, but they represent a paradigm shift in capital markets, catering to companies with a market capitalization between $50 million and $500 million. This category includes emerging players in sectors like healthcare, technology, life sciences, and financial services. Pursuing a Micro-Cap or Small-Cap IPO is not just an alternative; it's a dynamic strategy for companies looking to shape their destiny in the ever-evolving landscape of global capital markets. #booktalkthursdays #author #entrepreneur #business #ipo
