Founder-grade IPO execution for companies we’ve invested in, delivered by an operator team that has run the audit room, drafted the S-1, and stood under the bell on listing day. Our founder concurrently sits as Group MD & CEO of PUC Berhad (Bursa ACE: 0007). We tell you when you’re ready. And when you’re not.

Most advisory firms watch from the sidelines. We've been in the boardroom you're trying to get to. Our founder runs a Bursa-listed PLC concurrently. Our directors have led PCAOB audits, drafted SEC filings, and stood under the bell on listing day. That experience changes what we can tell you, and what we won't.
We diagnose first. Then we treat. If we don't believe you'll list, we say so, and we tell you what would change that. About one in three first conversations end with us recommending a different path or a longer runway. Our reputation is built on the deals we don't take.
Request Confidential AssessmentFunding a company is the easy part; turning it into one the market trusts is the work. Robinhood Corporate treats a company the way a doctor treats a patient: we diagnose before we prescribe, then a team of specialists across governance, audit, tax, capital and IPO execution converges every deliverable into one clean path to the bell.
Robinhood Corporate works with companies in two ways, and only two. Both presume alignment: we engage where the Robinhood ecosystem has put capital into the business, so that our success and yours are tied together from day one.
We run the corporate, governance, IR and capital-markets workstreams across the listed investments held by the Robinhood ecosystem, putting one disciplined team behind every one of them. See the Group Structure on About for the current managed list.
Externally, we engage where the Robinhood ecosystem (Ventures or Robinhood Capital Sdn Bhd) has put capital into the business. This alignment lets us bring the same depth of execution to your IPO and post-listing journey.
If you’re a founder looking for an advisor without an investor on the cap table, we’ll point you toward our partner firms. If you’d like us alongside you for the full journey, that starts with a capital conversation.
Every Robinhood Corporate engagement runs through the same five-phase pathway. Each phase has a defined scope, a deliverable list, and a clear exit gate. You see what you're paying for, and you stop where it makes sense.
Months 0–2. Honest readiness assessment against the chosen exchange (Bursa LEAP / ACE / Main, Nasdaq, NYSE). We map the gap between today and listing day. If you're not ready, we say so.
Months 2–6. Holding-co setup, ownership realignment, board recomposition, committee charters. The corporate plumbing that listing exchanges and auditors will scrutinize first.
Months 6–14. Two-year PCAOB audit cycle for US listings, prospectus / S-1 / F-1 drafting, due diligence files, internal controls. The slowest phase, and the one most deals fail on.
Months 14–17. SEC submission, regulatory back-and-forth, exchange application, investor education, pricing strategy. Underwriter, market-maker, transfer-agent appointments.
Months 17–18+. Pricing, allocation, listing day, lock-up management, first quarterly cycle as a public company. We do not disengage at the bell.
From quiet pre-IPO preparation to the moment the bell rings, Robinhood Corporate is the operating platform behind the milestone, not an advisor watching from the sidelines.

We do not bill open-ended hours. Each engagement is structured into the five phases above, with a defined scope, deliverable list, and fee per phase. You see what you're paying for, and you can stop where it makes sense.
Fees split between retainer (covering ongoing advisory and team-time) and milestone fees (paid against named deliverables). Where appropriate, we co-invest in our own mandates, so a portion of our economics is tied to listing success, not just listing attempt.
This model is unusual in regional advisory. It's what we'd want if we were sitting in the founder's chair. We have been.
Four things that make a Robinhood Corporate engagement structurally different from regional advisory firms and large-cap professional services.
Our founder runs a Bursa-listed PLC concurrently. Our directors have led IPO programs across Asia and US markets. We're not theorizing about listing. We've done it.
We turn down mandates we don't believe will list. Our reputation is built on the deals we don't take, and the longer runway we recommend instead.
PCAOB auditors, SEC counsel, transfer agents, and broker-dealers in our direct network. The relationships took 25+ years to build. They take a phone call, not an introduction.
We don't disengage at listing day. Post-IPO governance, IR cadence, lock-up management, and second-financing planning are part of the same mandate, because that's where most newly-listed Asian companies struggle.
30-minute candid conversation with the Corporate team. We'll tell you honestly where you stand, and what the realistic path looks like. No commitment. No fee.
