We help founders unlock the fastest, cleanest and most founder-friendly path to long-term capital.
Access to Much Larger Capital Pools
An IPO opens the door to public markets, institutional investors, sovereign funds, pension funds, allowing you to raise significantly more without giving away control.
Founder Control Is Preserved
VC funding dilutes ownership and often brings aggressive governance. With an IPO, founders typically keep 60–85% of voting power, while raising more capital than any private round can offer.
Liquidity for Founders & Early Investors
Instead of waiting 7–10 years for a VC exit, IPOs provide immediate liquidity options through public shares, structured lock-ups and managed sell-downs.
Higher Valuation Multiples
Public markets almost always value companies higher than private VCs, especially in AI, SaaS and robotics. IPO valuation is 2–5× higher than a late-stage VC valuation on average.
Instant Global Credibility
A public listing on NYSE or NASDAQ dramatically increases brand trust with clients, partners, and governments. Many deals become accessible only after you become a public company.
Easier M&A and Strategic Partnerships
Public companies can use public stock as an acquisition currency, enabling faster growth without cash burn — something impossible for most private startups.
Cheaper Capital Over Time
VC money is the most expensive capital on the market (20–35% dilution per round). After an IPO, capital can be raised again through secondary offerings with minimal dilution.
Stronger Talent Attraction
Public companies attract top talent with liquid stock options, not theoretical private shares. This dramatically improves hiring, especially in AI, engineering, and product.
You Become a Market Leader
Being public sends a powerful message: Your company is here to dominate, not to be bought. It positions you as a category winner in the eyes of clients, investors, and media.
