Entrance to international capital markets provides access to additional sources of financing, ensures a more accurate assessment of the company’s value, improves image of the company in the eyes of potential investors. However to get a maximum return from an IPO companies should get ready for this step in advance. If you cannot influence market conditions your preparedness for an IPO is a result of your personal efforts! Companies that treat this step as a process and not as a one-off event launch more successful IPOs. This is a process of business transformation, increase of the company’s value, achieving a new level of business. In this connection proper preparation to an IPO creates competitive advantages which help better assess value of the company even if it chooses another way to attract funds / sell existing shares (e.g. through involvement of a strategic investor). These issues will be detailed within this programme.
You will get maximum required information within concise timeframe as well as necessary contacts. You will also have an opportunity to compare offering peculiarities at this or that floor and expectations of investors at various markets.
