Seriously? Dell owns 50% of Pivotal with the rest owned by companies like General Electric and Microsoft. The valuation is $3B. They aren't coattailing anything - it's an actual business with actual customers and actual value.
- jedberg 9y agoI know it's an actual business. I wasn't suggesting it wasn't. But even actual businesses can get a nice boost by filing along with a successful related IPO.
- what_ever 9y agoI don't think the decision could be made that quickly. IPOs are usually in work for months if not years.
- newfoundglory 9y agoPivotal has been talking about an IPO for years, yes - but the exact announcement timing could perhaps be adjusted in reaction to other events.
