More start-ups in Southeast Asia are expected to go public, with the annual number of initial public offerings (IPOs) in the region expected to cross 300 by 2030, said the report “The Southeast Asia Ecosystem 2.0” released on Thursday.
The report says it will be almost three times the number of regional firms that went public last year.
