- Figma mengajukan dokumen IPO secara rahasia setelah akuisisi oleh Adobe dibatalkan.
- Regulasi antimonopoli menjadi tantangan besar bagi akuisisi besar di industri teknologi.
- Meskipun banyak IPO yang terhambat, Figma menunjukkan keberanian untuk melanjutkan proses IPO.
San Francisco, California, United States - Figma, a company known for its collaborative design software, has filed confidential IPO papers with the SEC. This move comes 16 months after Figma scrapped a Rp 328.90 ribu ($20) billion takeover by Adobe due to antitrust scrutiny from both European and U.S. regulators. The Adobe deal would have been the largest acquisition of a privately held software company at the time.
In April 2024, Figma raised funding at a Rp 205.56 ribu ($12.5) billion valuation, with new investors like Franklin Venture Partners and Thrive Capital, along with insiders such as Sequoia Capital and Kleiner Perkins. This funding round was a secondary one, indicating strong investor interest despite the failed Adobe acquisition. Filing for an IPO shows corporate courage, especially given the current market uncertainties.
However, there is a significant difference between filing confidentially and launching an IPO roadshow. Many other companies have grounded their IPO plans due to market conditions, but Figma seems determined to move forward. The company's actions will be closely watched as they navigate the complexities of going public.
