      LinkedIn Preps for 2011 IPO: Report
      Olivia Oran
      01/06/11 - 11:43 AM EST

      NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- LinkedIn, the social network aimed at professionals, will likely file for an initial public offering during the first quarter of this year, according to Reuters.

      The Mountain View, Calif.-based business has selected Bank of America(BAC), JPMorgan(JPM), and Morgan Stanley(MS) to underwrite the IPO.

      LinkedIn began prepping for an IPO before news hit about a $500 million investment in Facebook from Goldman Sachs(GS) and Russian investment firm Digital Sky Technologies, the report said.

      LinkedIn could pave the way for other high-profile, venture capital-backed companies that might be considering filing this year.

      "Assuming LinkedIn reveals impressive financials and delivers a strong performance, it should be just one more proof-point, likely to convince other boards anxious-for-an-exit-but-still-nervous-about-the-markets to rev the engines and pull on to the IPO track," said Lise Buyer, founder of Class V Group, which advises private companies on public offerings.

      While 72 venture-backed companies went public in 2010 -- up from a mere 12 in 2009, according to the National Venture Capital Association -- few prominent startups chose to take this path last year. Some tech watchers were hoping for IPO news last year from popular social networking sites like Twitter, Groupon and social gaming company Zynga.

      LinkedIn, founded by former PayPal executive Reid Hoffman, is currently valued at around $1 billion on SharesPost, a marketplace for privately-held companies.

      The company has more than 85 million members in 200 countries.

      LinkedIn may be the first social networking company to IPO
      January 6, 2011 | 10:55 am

      LinkedIn may be the first company to quench investor thirst for the red-hot social networking market.

      Despite months of headlines from Facebook, Groupon and Twitter, the Mountain View, Calif., company which connects more than 85 million professionals could be first out of the gate. It has been quietly preparing an initial public offering for as early as the first quarter.

      LinkedIn has hired Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase to advise it after a round of interviews in November. The size of the offering is not known, but it's expected to be small relative to the company's valuation. LinkedIn's implied valuation on the private trading marketplace SharesPost is $2.2 billion.

      Tapping the public markets could be a smart play for LinkedIn, which could benefit from heightened investor interest in social media and get out in front of a blockbuster Facebook IPO expected in 2012.

      "LinkedIn has its own story to tell, and this gives them a window to get out there and tell that story," said BGC Partners analyst Colin Gillis. "Even though the business models are different, it's wise for LinkedIn to get out there and avoid getting lost in the Facebook noise."

      A LinkedIn spokesman declined to comment on the speculation. "An IPO is one of many tactics that we could choose to pursue," he said in an e-mailed statement. "We are focused on building our business and doing what is in the best long-term interest of LinkedIn members and shareholders."

      The IPO plans were earlier reported by Reuters.

      LinkedIn, which has more than 1,000 employees, may not have the explosive growth of Facebook but it is one of the first social media websites to become profitable, making money from premium services and advertising. LinkedIn does not disclose financial results but estimates of 2010 revenue are $200 million.

      LinkedIn is the brainchild of former PayPal executive and early Facebook backer Reid Hoffman, a successful Silicon Valley entrepreneur and investor who helped usher in the social networking boom. LinkedIn's investors include Sequoia Capital, the famous venture capital firm that backed Apple, Google and Oracle, Greylock Partners (where Hoffman now works), Bessemer Venture Partners and Goldman Sachs. LinkedIn has raised more than $100 million in venture capital.

      It's no secret that LinkedIn has been planning an IPO, although LinkedIn Chief Executive Jeff Weiner ducked the issue in a November interview. Weiner, a former Yahoo executive, joined LinkedIn in December 2008 and became chief executive officer in June 2009.

      "You don't necessarily have to go public to get to the next level," he said.

      But an IPO could be a springboard to accelerate the site's growth in the United States and overseas. LinkedIn has added 30 million users in the last 12 months alone.

      "We believe LinkedIn is growing rapidly, in terms of membership, engagement, and revenue, and the market would be very accommodating," Wedbush Securities analyst Lou Kerner said.

      LinkedIn Said to Be Worth Almost $3 Billion in Secondary Sale
      January 21, 2011, 12:20 AM EST

      By Douglas MacMillan and Ari Levy

      Jan. 21 (Bloomberg) -- LinkedIn Corp. shares are being sold in an auction by secondary exchange SharesPost Inc. for $30 apiece, valuing the professional-networking website at almost $3 billion, according to three people familiar with the matter.

      SharesPost has contacted LinkedIn shareholders to gauge interest, said two of the people, who declined to be identified because the auction isn’t public. Sellers had until this week to commit to SharesPost, and participants will be informed of results on Jan. 28, according to a document obtained by Bloomberg.

      The sale would give LinkedIn investors a chance to divest shares before the company files for an initial public offering. LinkedIn has hired banks including Morgan Stanley & JPMorgan Chase & Co. to advise on an IPO and may complete its prospectus this quarter, a person familiar with the plans said this month. SharesPost’s website now values LinkedIn at $2.51 billion.

      LinkedIn has 97.1 million shares outstanding, according to SharesPost. At $30 a share, investors would be valuing the Mountain View, California-based company at $2.91 billion. A minimum of 95,500 shares will be sold and buyers must invest at least $100,000 to be eligible.

      LinkedIn, based in Mountain View, California, has more than 1,000 employees and 90 million users in more than 200 countries. Members use the site to search for jobs, recruit employees and find industry experts. The company allows users to create and maintain profiles for free and makes money through a premium service and from advertising.

      Hani Durzy, a spokesman for LinkedIn, declined to comment.

      Surge in Trading

      A surge in secondary-market trading helped push up the valuations of LinkedIn, Facebook Inc., Twitter Inc. and other top venture-backed Web startups by a combined 54 percent between June and December, according to Nyppex LLC.

      “We cannot comment on any prospective or current offerings,” SharesPost Chief Executive Officer Dave Weir said in a statement. “We would be happy to discuss the results of any future auctions if and when we have them once they are completed.”

      As more investors clamor for stakes in private companies, regulators are stepping up scrutiny. SecondMarket Inc., a SharesPost competitor, said this month that it received a request for information from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The SEC is seeking information about trading in companies including LinkedIn and Facebook, the Wall Street Journal and New York Times reported last month.

      SharesPost, founded in 2009, is an online marketplace that connects more than 45,000 investors with private-company securities, according to its site. In March, San Bruno, California-based SharesPost introduced a venture-backed index that tracks the value of seven companies based on recent transactions, bid and offer prices, research reports and venture financing.

      LinkedIn is the fourth-biggest company by market value on SharesPost’s index. Facebook is the biggest with a $76 billion valuation, followed by Zynga Game Network Inc. and Twitter.

      LinkedIn startet News-Service

      veröffentlicht am 11.03.2011 um 14:25 Uhr · Digital · Artikel
      Das Business Netzwerk LinkedIn bietet ab sofort einen News-Service und stellt die wichtigsten Nachrichten des Tages individuell für seine Mitglieder zusammen.
      LinkedIn bereitet derzeit seinen Börsengang vor – noch in diesem Jahr soll es soweit sein. Mit dem neuen News-Service "LinkedIn Today" soll das Netzwerk nun offenbar noch attraktiver werden. Die Mitglieder erhalten künftig die für sie wichtigsten Schlagzeilen des Tages. Generiert werden die News über die Links, die von den Mitgliedern gelesen und geteilt werden - Motto: was mein Netzwerk empfiehlt, muss interessant für mich sein.
      Automatisch werden die Nachrichten nach den Interessen der Mitglieder zusammengestellt. Dabei werden Top-Stories berücksichtigt der Branchen, in denen der User und seine Kunden arbeiten. Wenn ein IT-Unternehmer beispielsweise für den Gesundheitssektor aktiv ist, kann er die News beider Branchen erhalten. Eine Zusammenarbeit mit Google News und Yahoo News ist bereits in Planung.

      Jobsuche: LinkedIn ein Muss für Banker

      Die Suche nach Spezialisten findet immer weniger im klassischen Stellenanzeiger statt.


      12.05.2011 13:59
      Stellenvermittler wie Manpower suchen immer häufiger Spezialisten in Sozialen Netzwerken. Dennoch steht dieser Form von Recruiting noch ein weiter Weg bevor.

      von Pascal Meisser

      Seit diesem Jahr hat Manpower die Suche nach Kandidaten auf Social-Media-Seiten intensiviert, wobei je nach Job-Profil meist nur eine oder zwei Netzwerke in Frage kommen. „Für Finanzspezialisten ist LinkedIn ganz klar die Nummer eins“, urteilt Urs Schüpbach, Generaldirektor bei Manpower. Sein Rat an die Banker lautet deshalb: „Wer offen für eine Luftveränderung ist, sollte unbedingt ein LinkedIn-Profil eröffnen. Vor allem, wer in seinem Fachgebiet spezialisiert ist.“

      Bei breiter ausgerichteten Job-Angeboten sowie anderen Branchen werden auch Xing und Facebook rege genützt. „Facebook ist ideal für Hilfskräfte, während wir bei Xing eher die gut ausgebildeten Leute suchen“, so Schüpbach. Um die Profile effizient abzusuchen, verfügt Manpower über entsprechende Tools. Schüpbach: „Das ermöglicht uns, mit unseren Wunsch-Kandidaten in Kontakt zu treten.“

      Proaktive Kandidatensuche statt abwarten

      Der Vorteil der proaktiven Kandidatensuche liegt auf der Hand: Statt abzuwarten, dass sich Job-Suchende auf ein Online- oder Offline-Inserat melden, können geeignete Arbeitsnehmer gezielt angegangen werden. „Deshalb sind Soziale Netzwerke gerade bei der Suche nach Fachkräften für uns ein wichtiges Instrument geworden“, sagt Schüpbach.

      Manpower hat im vergangenen Herbst denn auch ein internes Strategiepapier zum Thema „Rekrutierung in Sozialen Netzwerken“ verfasst. „Wir wollen uns diesen neuen Möglichkeiten nicht verschliessen, sondern eruieren, wo wir daraus Nutzen ziehen können. Deshalb halten wir auch nichts davon, Facebook & Co. firmenintern sperren zu lassen“, erklärt Schüpbach. Auch wenn er weiss, dass er auf diese Weise Gefahr läuft, dass auch ihm Mitarbeiter abgeworben werden könnten.

      Er glaubt auch, dass auf Unternehmens-Seite die Bedeutung von Sozialen Netzwerken stetig steigt: „Seit letztem Sommer ist die positive Grundeinstellung von Arbeitgebern gegenüber dieser Form des Recruitings spürbar gestiegen.“

      Netzwerke stehen noch am Anfang

      Dass das Recruiting auf Sozialen Netzwerken trotz wachsender Bereitschaft erst am Anfang steht, zeigt eine aktuelle Studie des Manpower-Konkurrenten Monster Worldwide. In der Studie „Recruiting Trends 2011 Schweiz“ wurden die grössten 500 Unternehmen der Schweiz zur Personalsuche befragt. Gemäss dieser Studie werden über Online-Stellenbörsen bis zu 70 Prozent der offenen Stellen ausgeschrieben. Die Karriere-Netzwerke LinkedIn und Xing fallen mit 2,4 Prozent deutlich ab. Noch weniger gefragt sind Facebook und Twitter, die gemeinsam bei 2 Prozent liegen.

      Noch tiefer liegt dieser Anteil bei den effektiven Anstellungen. Fast jede dritte Stelle wurde über eine Anzeige bei einer Stellenbörse besetzt, gefolgt von Einstellungen über die eigene Website und Personalvermittlungen. Mit einem Anteil von 0,7 Prozent schnitten die Internet-Netzwerke noch schlechter als als beispielsweise das vom Staat betriebene RAV (1 Prozent).

      An dieser klassischen Hierarchie konnte bislang auch die im Januar 2011 gestartete Job-Online-Plattform Janzz kaum etwas ändern. Janzz will gemäss Pressesprecher Stefan Böhi nicht Jobs, sondern sondern gesuchte und gebotene Fähigkeiten mittels High-Quality Matching vermitteln.

      Die Zukunft der Stellensuche gehe nach Ansicht von Janzz in diese Richtung: Weg vom Suchen zum Finden. Wieviele aktive User diese Plattform bereits benutzen, konnte Böhi aus Gründen der Anonymität nicht sagen. Nach eigenen Angaben auf der Website sind bislang rund 2400 so genannte Janzzs aufgegeben worden. Im Vergleich dazu bietet jobs.ch, der Branchenleader bei den Online-Jobvermittlern, 32‘300 Jobs an. ..

      TOKYO, Oct. 20, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LinkedIn, (NYSE:LNKD) the world's largest professional network with more than 120 million members worldwide, today announced that LinkedIn is now available in Japanese and has opened an office in Shibuya, Tokyo. The new Japan office will provide support for increasing awareness and adoption of LinkedIn in Japan, with a focus on member engagement and growth, product development, strategic partnerships and general operations.

      LinkedIn is a professional network focused entirely on the professional workforce with members that span across more than 200 countries and territories (as of August 4, 2011). LinkedIn enables professionals to connect locally and globally to exchange knowledge, ideas and opportunities with a broader network of professionals around the world.

      "Japan represents a huge opportunity for LinkedIn's growth and engagement and we are committed to delivering the best experience for Japanese professionals," said Arvind Rajan, managing director of APAC & Japan at LinkedIn. "With the tremendous talent pool and skill sets of Japanese professionals, LinkedIn will continue to foster a powerful and global exchange of information and opportunities that will help professionals around the world become more productive and successful at what they do every day. "

      Features for Professionals

      New LinkedIn members can access the site and create their LinkedIn Profile in Japanese by visiting http://jp.linkedin.com/. New members will be able to build and manage their professional identity online by sharing their career updates and experiences, skills and capabilities, education and recommendations by their industry peers. A LinkedIn profile is also a great way for professionals to take control of the first impression people have when they search for a person online, as the LinkedIn profile likely surfaces at the top of any Internet search results. Creating a LinkedIn profile is free and available to all professionals.

      By creating a LinkedIn profile and establishing a professional network, professionals will have direct access to communicate and collaborate with other LinkedIn members, such as colleagues, business partners, clients, and alumni to share important insights that will help them be more productive and successful in their jobs. Japanese members will also have access to products like Groups, where they can collaborate with industry peers in Japan and around the world to solve problems or share important best practices around topics and issues of interest.

      Products such as the Homepage and LinkedIn Signal can also help professionals gather rich insights about what professionals are saying, commenting on, and sharing with their professional peers in real-time. Signal allows professionals to filter LinkedIn's member updates by using search facets, such as location, company, industry and more, in order to glean just the relevant pieces of information from a constant stream of updates.

      Japanese professionals will also have the option to upgrade their free account to a premium account to leverage features, such as increased InMails, and better organization of important profiles and search functions.

      Features for Companies

      Japanese companies have many ways to promote, market and present their organizations to millions of LinkedIn members around the world. One of the easiest ways to do this is by creating a Company Page, which is being used by more than 2 million companies worldwide today. LinkedIn's Company Pages can be created and managed in Japanese, and with our new "status update" feature, companies now have the ability to have a direct dialogue with their followers to post updates on company news, new jobs, relevant industry articles, videos and more. More than 60 Japanese companies have already created a Company Page on LinkedIn.

      Features for Students and New Professionals

      Millions of students today are using LinkedIn around the world to build their professional identity and network, to help achieve their career goals by connecting with established professionals who can provide insights into relevant internship, job or business opportunities. Students can connect to fellow students to learn more about where they've landed jobs, reach out to alumni for advice and counsel, and leverage the networks of their parents, family, friends or mentors to get a head start on their career planning. Students can also gather important information about companies and industries using products like Groups, Signal and Company Pages to glean important information that can help them make better decisions about their career choices.
