You can only do so much when planning to IPO - but the more preparation and streamlining internal processes you can do, the better! 💡 A lot of the pain-points for reward and equity leaders usually relate to the communication to employees and 'how' an IPO affects them. The more transparency and education about what equity is and the value/impact it may have on the lives on employees, the easier it can make the lives of equity teams!

And that storm is closer than you think... But no matter what happens, Roopairs comes out on top. Why? Because our commitment has always been, and will always be, to our customers.

One thing is for sure: when these Private Equity firms start their due diligence on our competitors, who do you think they'll come across? Stay Hoppin’ or Stay Behind. #Roopairs #IndustryLeader #Savage #CustomerFirst #Innovation #LongTermValue #SoftwareThatWorks

"It's a lot harder to be a public company today than it used to be. As a byproduct, returns have shifted from being democratically available in the small and mid-cap public markets to being concentrated in the private markets." — Spencer McLeod, Partner and Head of Research at G Squared. From the sidelines of day 1 of our 7th Private Equity San Francisco Forum, McLeod breaks down why we’re seeing an elongation of the private company lifecycle in venture capital. With the number of public companies in the United States nearly cut in half over the past twenty years and the unicorn phenomenon thriving in the private market, he dives into the pressures of living quarter-to-quarter as a public company, the high costs of going public, and the changing landscape of investor priorities—shifting from growth to profitability. G Squared isn’t just watching from the sidelines—they’ve pioneered an approach to meet the unique and varying needs of today's most innovative private companies, from local gems to global giants. Watch the full interview to hear Spencer’s take on what's next for the IPO market. And as we move into day 2 today, our final day, stay tuned for more highlights from our forum! 🎥 #MarketsGroupPE Paloma Lima-Mayland Meghan Hazen, DES Brandon Link Victoria Cepeda James Garnett Giseli Cristina A.
