Taking your company public is an exciting and challenging process for leaders like yourselves – the entrepreneur, the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer – and for all the other stakeholders involved in the process. For some, going public may be the culmination of one long-term strategic goal and the beginning of a new life in the public spotlight. For others, it may be the achievement of a major business and financial reward. Being public brings prestige and visibility with all the players in the market – customers, suppliers, employers, and the financial community.
