What Is Happening to IPOs?

January 24, 2018 16:30

Fewer late stage start-ups are choosing to go to public market for capital, and turning to alternate forms of funding, from corporate venture capital to initial coin offerings. Can long-term thinking get a boost in this new business climate?

Dimensions to be addressed:
- New models of transparency and reporting
- Absence of quarterly earnings scrutiny
- Limited access to private markets

This session will be livestreamed on TopLink and the Forum website.
