In this episode, Seth sits down with Joe Lucosky, Founding Partner of Lucosky Brookman, to break down how CEOs should actually think about going public whether through an IPO, SPAC, direct listing, or not at all.
Joe shares the hard truth most advisors won’t say: many companies simply aren’t ready and chasing the public markets for the wrong reasons can do more harm than good.
