Startup activity is at an all-time high, venture funding has soared, but something is still missing… the huge exits. The IPO market simply doesn’t exist. What are the alternative exit strategies for all that venture capital?
- Acquisition by Google / Yahoo/ eBay ..etc?
- IPO on a foreign Stock Exchange?
- Go public through a reverse merger? (yuck…)
- or…?
