When you IPO.
- ouid 9y agoyou can stay a private company forever, surely walmart isn't a startup.
- eridius 9y agoI suppose that's true, but startups generally take VC funding, and VCs want the company to either IPO or get bought. There are bootstrapped "startups", but if you're not taking VC funding and trying to go big, then it's less obvious what the difference is between a "startup" and a "company".
