2013年最值得關(guān)注的10宗IPO
????Box ????過(guò)去幾年,Box頗為惹眼,。這家提供云內(nèi)容管理和文件分享服務(wù)的公司2012年11月底出席了瑞士信貸(Credit Suisse)的年度科技大會(huì),,表明公司管理層至少是在權(quán)衡IPO。當(dāng)然,,只是出席某一家投資銀行的會(huì)議并不能保證什么(Box也曾出席2011年的高盛會(huì)議),,但這些公司出席會(huì)議絕非偶然。過(guò)去一年,,Box的員工規(guī)模幾乎擴(kuò)大了一倍,,增加到了650人。2012年7月的一次大規(guī)模融資中,,它獲得估值約12億美元,,共融資1.25億美元。外界預(yù)測(cè)Box可能尋求進(jìn)行IPO,,估值為20-30億美元,。 |
????Box ????Box has been highly visible over the past few years. The company, which offers cloud-based content management and file sharing services, attended the Credit Suisse Annual Technology Conference in late November, a sign that management is at least kicking the tires on an IPO. Merely attending an investment banking conference doesn't guarantee anything (Box was also at a Goldman Sachs conference in 2011), but companies don't show up by accident. Box nearly doubled its workforce in the past year to 650 employees, and it was valued at roughly $1.2 billion following a substantial funding round in July that brought in $125 million. Estimates suggest Box may seek an IPO valuation between $2-3 billion. |
