See if you can ID me, I am an entrepreneur who was portrayed4 in Oscar-winning movie, I went to college at Harvard, but I didn't graduate. I've been listed as one of the world's youngest self-made billionaires, and many of you use my social network everyday. I am Mark Zuckerberg, the co-founder in CEO of facebook, the Zuckerberg and some of his friends launched fackbook in 2004, started in his dorm roommates at Harvard, now more than 900 million people are on the social networking site. By the end of this week, you could have a chance to own a piece of this company, right now facebook is a private business,but this Friday, it's expected to go public, that means facebook will start selling shares of stock,  Mark Zuckerberg and some company executives had been traveling around  the country the past few weeks, they are trying to figure out how demand there is for facebook stock, that's how they will set the price for the company's IPO, Alley5 explains what that is and why this matter. The IPO, initial public offering, it's the 1st time that a privately6 held company offers the chairs to the public, now there are a few reasons why they do this, one, they pay off early stage investors7, two, it's prestigious8, but three, they raise much needed money to expand business. Tom Adam was the CEO of Rozada Stone, a language learning software company which went public on April 17th 2009. The actual IPO day is fantastic moment for the company, because effectively you've had to do a lot of work to be ready to go public, it's saucily9 numerous pride for everybody. But before a company can't do its IPO, it has to set a price for the stock, and then go on a rouge10 show. You basically get the feeling like rock star for about 2 weeks, the bank is what put you on a private plane, and fly you around, cause it's such a urgency to get to as many meetings as possibly you can, so you set off going to tell you your story, and I think you have to just tell, like it is, and very much explain for good and bad of the company, because these are long-term relationships that your company is gonna set and have within invest base until you want to hit the right bounds. The IPO process is too complicated for a company to undertake itself, so they hire investment bankers to underwrite it. So you have essentially11 all of different banks you've conceded, come to present, to you, and evaluate bare assessment12 of the company and how they would present them and sell them.  The big question: how high do you set the price? you are trying to get the range at a level where people will have a conversation, that's vital. So low enough to produce demand, but high enough that you make money of them, so high enough that your incumbent13 invest, the people who've been with you for a long time will be very happy about the outcome, and so you've got balance attitude, and you know, that's something you just have to get them. Companies can make a lot of money going public, instant millionaires, you pay off your early stage investors, you got money to expand, but there is a trade-off, when you are a private, nobody minds your business, when you are public, it's everybody's business.
