Reddit, the social discussion platform, is gearing up for a long-overdue IPO, with talks in progress. The company is considering an IPO as early as the first quarter of 2024, with a potential valuation of $15 billion.

Having raised over $1 billion to date, Reddit’s move towards an IPO gained momentum after a significant financing round in 2021.

Stripe

Stripe, a San Francisco-based financial services company, is known for its online payments solutions. Valued at $95 billion in 2021, the company is expected to go public via a direct listing.

Founded in 2009 by the Collison brothers, Stripe’s IPO is highly anticipated. Despite challenges, Stripe continues to grow, reporting a 60% increase in 2021.

Shein

Shein, a Chinese-founded fast-fashion giant, confidentially filed for a US IPO, eyeing a listing as soon as 2024 with a valuation between $60 billion and $90 billion.

Databricks, a San Francisco-based enterprise software company, specialises in data analytics using the Apache Spark engine. Valued at $33 billion, its IPO date is yet to be confirmed, but interest is growing.

With a focus on managing data through machine learning and AI, Databricks has steadily grown since its founding in 2013. The company’s IPO could potentially exceed $40 billion, marking a significant milestone.
