About

IPO Candy provides information, analysis, insight, and commentary on markets and companies in and around the IPO markets. We start with late-stage private (pre-IPO) and follow them after they begin their journey as a newly-public company.

We tend to look for themes and cover more growth-oriented areas like technology, medical technology and devices, internet and consumer names.

IPO Candy was founded during the "IPO Winter" in 2008/09. Rumors of the IPO market being "dead" are always exaggerated. Deals happen all the time in all markets - good or bad, slow or fast.

Since then the service has grown thanks to our expanding audience and generous subscribers. Our independent approach and general dislike for advertising means that you'll never see it here.

Today we review every IPO and have a small dedicated staff working on content, analysis, investing and new products and services. Here at IPO Candy you'll find what you need about the current IPO calendar and the companies in play.

For professionals who want access to the archives of roadshows and deal information we have a dedicated site called IPO Candy Pro.

Finally the explosion of SPAC-based IPO deals have spurred us to launch a new site dedicated to those. We've recently seen some amazing deals with Virgin Galactic (SPCE), DraftKings (DKNG) and Nikola (NKLA). You can discover more about that world here: SPAC IPO Advisory.

We are considered a publisher - not an investment bank, broker dealer nor registered investment adviser. We also have disclaimers and terms and conditions which should be referred to for more information.

Our business model is purely subscription - no advertising. IPO Candy is aimed at the broad population of people with an interest in growth, new companies and the IPO market.

Or "official" headquarters is just outside Boston in Belmont, Massachusetts but our virtual team is located in Kentucky, Texas, and India.
