That's way, way down. There were 60 tech IPO's in 2007, for example. The previous low for this century was 17 tech IPO's in 2001. Advanced battery systems are something the world needs badly. I wish A123 Systems the best! There have been extraordinary few IPO’s this calendar year: only three tech IPO’s, and 31 IPO’s in all, so far (actually up to 6/30/08). That’s way, way down.
