How to Prepare for SOX Before the IPO: Building Controls That Scale

What this webinar is about

For companies preparing to go public, SOX compliance is more than a regulatory requirement. It is a critical milestone that can influence IPO readiness, investor confidence, and long-term operational success. Yet many organizations wait too long to establish the governance, internal controls, and evidence needed to support a successful SOX program, resulting in costly remediation efforts, increased audit fees, and unnecessary delays.

This session explores how pre-IPO companies can build a scalable SOX compliance program before becoming subject to regulatory requirements. Attendees will learn how to identify and prioritize key financial and IT controls, automate access governance and segregation of duties (SoD), streamline evidence collection, and establish continuous monitoring to reduce risk and simplify future audits.

Whether your organization is 24 months from an IPO or actively preparing to enter the public markets, this session provides a practical roadmap for implementing the people, processes, and technology needed to achieve audit readiness while supporting rapid business growth.
