VC-backed Gilt Groupe may unveil IPO in late 2014 - AllThingsD

According to AllThingsD, online shopping website Gilt Groupe may be launching an IPO in the fourth quarter of 2014. The site also reported that unlike the previous times in which the company flirted with the idea, this time it may be true. Gilt Groupe has not hired any banks for the IPO so it's possible the launch could be pushed into early 2015. Gilt Groupe is backed by Matrix Partners, General Atlantic, Goldman Sachs, NEA, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Pinnacle Ventures, TriplePoint Capital, Eastward Capital Partners, GSV Capital and SoftBank Capital.
