Benchmark Is Optimistic About IPOs
,----[ Quote ]
| Now some venture-capital firms are trying to tamp down the anxiety levels
| over taking a company public. Earlier this week, Benchmark Capital–which has
| invested in hits such as eBay and Red Hat over the years–held an IPO workshop
| for 20 of its largest portfolio companies. The event was designed to walk
| startup CEOs through the IPO landscape and to debunk some of the myths about
| the hurdles of going public.

,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat is at the top of its game right now, delivering quarter after quarter
| of impressive performance despite (or, perhaps, because of) a global
| recession. But it wasn't always thus. Despite a meteoric initial public
| offering in 1999, Red Hat spent years fumbling about for a winning game plan,
| dabbling in technologies that took it far beyond its core competence in
| operating systems.
