Pre-IPO investing involves purchasing shares in a private company before it goes public. This allows investors to secure ownership at a price often significantly lower than the eventual IPO listing price.‍

Pre-IPO investments are typically offered to accredited investors and present an opportunity to invest in high-growth companies at an early stage. If the company’s valuation rises after it becomes publicly traded, these investments can lead to exponential returns.‍

However, pre-IPO investing requires careful consideration due to associated risks such as limited liquidity and company-specific challenges.

Pre-IPOs and IPOs differ primarily in timing, access, and pricing:

• Timing: Pre-IPO shares are offered before the company goes public, while IPO shares are available to the public during the company’s market debut.
• Access: Pre-IPO shares are typically reserved for institutional investors and accredited individuals, whereas IPO shares are open to the broader market.
• Pricing: Pre-IPO shares are often sold at a discounted rate compared to the IPO listing price, giving early investors an advantage in potential returns.

Pre-IPO investments are generally restricted to accredited investors, as defined by the SEC. To qualify, an individual must meet at least one of the following criteria:

• A net worth exceeding $1 million (excluding primary residence).
• An annual income over $200,000 (or $300,000 jointly with a spouse) for the past two years, with expectations of maintaining that level.
