Some Personal News: Direct Listings

Editor’s Note: Some Personal News is a mini podcast series where hosts Natasha Mascarenhas and Sophia Kunthara share notes from their reporters’ notebooks, explain what the week’s headlines meant to them, and laugh a little bit, too. Listen to previous episodes on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.

On the final episode of the mini-series, Sophia Kunthara sits down with Crunchbase News Editor-in-Chief Alex Wilhelm to talk about direct listings and why some companies have opted to forego the traditional IPO route.

If you have feedback about Some Personal News or what kind of podcast you’d like to see Crunchbase News produce in 2020, we’d love to hear it.
