2013年最值得關注的10宗IPO

????Box ????過去幾年,,Box頗為惹眼。這家提供云內(nèi)容管理和文件分享服務的公司2012年11月底出席了瑞士信貸(Credit Suisse)的年度科技大會,,表明公司管理層至少是在權衡IPO,。當然,只是出席某一家投資銀行的會議并不能保證什么(Box也曾出席2011年的高盛會議),,但這些公司出席會議絕非偶然,。過去一年,Box的員工規(guī)模幾乎擴大了一倍,,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,。外界預測Box可能尋求進行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. |
