Outbrain

Outbrain is an advertising platform whose content marketing tool offers to help Internet publishers increase web traffic to their websites. Although, most of us don't know Outbrain by name, this advertising company is primarily responsible for populating articles on many websites with sponsored links to other content around the web.

According to the The Wall Street Journal report, it is said that Outbrain had filed confidentially with the Securities and Exchange Commission for an IPO. Although, it’s not a done deal yet, but it strikes the deal to go public, Outbrain could be at a valuation of around $1 billion.

Line

Line is a proprietary application for instant communications on electronic devices such as Smartphones, tablet computers and personal computers. Although most of us know Line by its mobile App and services, the company reached 100 million users within eighteen months and in October 2014 Line announced that it had attracted 560 million users worldwide with 170 million active user accounts.

In terms of going public, it is said that this Japanese messaging app with around 500 million users has reportedly filed for a $10 billion IPO over the summer, but then decided to push it back for whatever reasons, which the company has not disclosed. With 2014 being a big year for Asian IPOs and thanks to the success of Alibaba, perhaps 2015 will be the year for Line to make it even bigger.
