The Role of Investor Relations in Smaller IPOs
Challenges and Solutions for Micro and Small Cap Companies Going Public
This episode discusses the major challenges faced by micro and small cap public companies, particularly focusing on the lack of sponsorship that these companies often encounter when they go public via IPO, reverse merger, or SPAC without support from well-known banks.
The importance of the Investor Relations (IR) function in addressing this challenge is highlighted, emphasizing the need for proactive and creative strategies to increase visibility and awareness among investors.
