SUMMARY:Public vs private: the cost / benefit of being a public company
DESCRIPTION:This interactive session will explore the benefits (and costs
 ) of remaining a privately held company as compared to embarking on a pu
 blic offering. As we know\, there can be considerable benefits\, and hid
 den downsides\, to having listed securities. We will explore what needs 
 to be done to prepare for a successful public listing and the pitfalls t
 o avoid. We will also explore the characteristics of those organisations
  that have successfully executed on their strategic objectives without g
 oing public.
