Corsair Gaming, Inc. Launches Initial Public Offering

Back "in the day" an IPO was a really big deal as it indicated that a company was ready to take things to the next level.  An IPO was also a make or break point for a company, some surged while others lost so much value that they were driven into obscurity.

There were rumors that Corsair was planning an IPO a few months ago and we have finally got confirmation of that today.  Corsair will be trading under "CRSR" with an initial offer price between $16 and $18 USD.

Corsair has been a great company to work with and while I cannot say I have worked with them in in over 15 years I do wish them all the best however, I suspect in less than a year they will resend their IPO and move back to being a private company again.
