What is IPO to Go?
IPO to Go's mission is to use the Internet to create opportunity
for investors looking for small companies or start ups to invest in. We also help companies raise investment
capital using the Internet.
Traditionally, the IPO has been the way most companies go public;
however, most companies cannot afford the expenses nor have the need for this type of financing. As an
alternative, many companies seek the help of Venture Capitalists, even though most VC's reject anywhere
from 95% to 99% of all investment proposals.
As a result, IPO to Go has created a service
to fill this financing void. Called the Capital Chasm by the Small Business Administration, there is
an estimated financing shortfall of $60 billion. IPO to Go helps small and mid-sized companies overcome
this financing shortfall by guiding them through the IPO process or alternatively, hooking them up with
"Angel" investors. This service assists companies to sell their own stock directly, bypassing brokers,
underwriters and investment bankers.
With the ever-increasing popularity of the Internet, individual
investors have taken more control over their finances. As evidence, look at the rising popularity of
online stock exchanges. Increasingly, investors will turn to the Internet to find information on investment
opportunities and to IPO to Go for investment research, data and links to investment resources. The
IPO and all its inflated expenses will give rise to a new way of investing -- The takeout IPO from IPO
to Go.
