As more private companies begin to explore or renew their interest in an IPO, and with market observers expressing cautious optimism about increased IPO activity moving into 2024, the decision to take your company public is one that demands significant internal preparation well before listing day.

​ As we kick off NY Tech Week, join Fenwick’s Per Chilstrom and Ian Goldstein for a conversation with Goldman Sachs Managing Directors Danielle Freeman and Michael Kenworthy, about current IPO market conditions and trends and related strategic steps a company can consider ahead of going public.

​ This will be an in-person breakfast, followed by the panel conversation.
