IPO (initial public offering)


Explanation:
When a company goes public. This is standard terminology - I've been involved as a translator in several IPO's of German companies on the Neuer Markt in Frankfurt. This was always the term used for "Börsengang". By the way, this term has already been discussed here at least a couple of times.

Good luck,
