With a number of big-name IPOs in the past few months and more on the way… when should a company go public? When does it make more sense to stay private?

To discuss the question of “Public or Private,” please join the Adam Smith Society and industry expert Rob Hays at our annual summer reception in Dallas on Thursday, July 18^th.

Rob Hays is Co-President and Chief Strategy Officer of publicly traded asset manager, Ashford, Inc. (NYSE American: AINC). In this role, Rob is responsible for the formation and execution of the strategic initiatives involving two NYSE listed Ashford-advised real estate investment trusts encompassing 135 hotels with 29,000 rooms and $7.4 billion in hospitality assets.
