Public capital markets are back in the strategic conversation for technology companies. The change is not limited to better IPO windows. Companies have a broader set of financing choices, investors are showing an appetite for large growth stories, and a credible public market path can give boards more leverage as they evaluate M&A and private financing alternatives.
That was the backdrop for a recent Cooley Market Talks discussion featuring Cooley Partners Dave Peinsipp and Jamie Leigh, who were joined by Edward Byun and Tegh Kapur of J.P. Morgan. The group covered the outlook for the rest of 2026 and 2027, with particular attention to late-stage private companies, public company issuers and their boards.
