William Blair Head of Capital Markets Steve Maletzky was featured in PE Hub’s “Private Markets 2030” report, where he highlighted the importance of the capital—and cachet—that comes with going public.
“If you ask a company that saw a 250 percent one-day return post-IPO, that’s a pretty dreamy outcome. And we’ve had that happen this year. An IPO is still an awesome branding event too. It can help catalyse new business, create trust among your customers and send a very strong message,” Maletzky told the publication.
