IPO
Ghislaine asks:

As we know , a company can offer IPO (initial public offer)only if that company is a public limited company and if a person starts a company then that company will be a private company then “How can he offer his shares in market”. Basically I am a engineering student, but very interested in marketing , is there any website where can gain such basic knowledge

    I don’t know the ins and outs, but you can make a privately held company public by offering shares for sale to the public. I’m pretty sure you have to go through a process with the SEC and you have to have a company that is viable enough to attract interest.

    All companies are private before they go public. Some of them have several million shares issued to investors in the form of preffered and common stock. (Venture Capitalists) You have to get a wall street type underwriter to take your company public. All of the shares issued at that point become common stock. It’s just paper work and FCC filings.
