While the YELP IPO Date isn't set in stone, there was chatter this week that the company hired Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as bankers. I am expecting the Yelp Inc. (YELP) IPO to open for trading sometime in March 2012 or April 2012. I guess it really depends on market conditions in Q1 2012. Yelp hasn't filed to go public yet but news reports have it valued between 1-2 billion. I will post updates when they come but expect Yelp to be a hot IPO in 2012.
