The IPO 

The Initial Public Offering (IPO) is an event that signals the official introduction of a venture onto the share market. When a business – or other entity – decides to “go public” by listing their organization on a recognized exchange, an IPO is required. This process involves the offering of shares to investors, allowing these backers to become partial owners in the company.
