If your head is still spinning made possible by last weeks news cycle? Congratulations – you’re normal. Trying to keep up with any news, even just one element (e.g., business) has been a near task in futility. Politics (understandably) in one form or another is currently dominating everything, even business. So with that said, it could be argued why the most anticipated, hailed, saving grace for all that is ‘The Valley’, IPO to save the IPO world Snap (aka Snapchat) filed its former ‘confidential’ papers on Thursday. And the reaction? (insert crickets here)
Sure there has been the usual high-fiving chorus throughout the tech world, and in particular ‘The Valley’ world. That’s to be expected. However, with that said, I want to offer up the following headline as possibly the reasoning behind so little fanfare. It comes from none other than Vanity Fair and ask if you have the same reaction as I did. Ready?
‘Silicon Valley, Rejoice: Snapchat Files For Huge $3 Billion I. P. O.’
My initial thoughts?: Silicon Valley dreams of working for ‘stock options’ and IPO riches meets its WTF moment into reality.
