In an effort to better know my readers and stimulate some discussion, I've decided to add polling to this blog. I guess I am always ranting and raving about so many topics that I feel it would be nice to see what other people think of things. I am using the free service from Vizu.
For those of you who don't know Vizu, it is a startup company focused on research and polling online. Full disclosure is that it is a portfolio company of a fund that I am a limited partner in. However, I will say that while this space is interesting, it is not an investment that I probably would have made (I will save that for another discussion). Anyways, I was looking for a free service and I thought I would give them a test try. If you guys don't like the service or think it is too cumbersome, let me know.
So the first question is related to Blackstone. Given all the hype and news surrounding the IPO filing, if given the opportunity, would you invest in the IPO at the offering price?
I know the price is not determined yet, but let's just assume that the valuation is $40 billion.
I will run each poll for 7 days. In an effort to get the opinion of PureVC blog readers, the polls are not public and will have the password: purevc
