IPO Outlookfiled

Is Strava going public in 2026?
Yes — Strava has confidentially filed for an IPO, with a listing expected in 2026. The filing is the company's own step, not a rumor.
What is Strava's valuation in 2026?
Strava is valued at $2.2B as of 2025-Q2, set by its Series F-1 ($50M, May 2025). That is the last confirmed mark, not a live price — private shares do not trade continuously.
Has Strava filed an S-1?
Yes. Strava has a confidential S-1 on file — the draft is not yet public.
Who are Strava's investors?
Strava's investors include Sequoia Capital, TCV, Jackson Square Ventures, Go4it Capital, Dragoneer Investment Group, Madrone Capital Partners and 2 more.
How much has Strava raised?
Strava has raised $180M in total, most recently a Series F-1 of $50M in May 2025.
Is Strava publicly traded — can you buy Strava stock?
Not yet. Strava is private until it lists, so there is no ticker to buy. Before the IPO, exposure is limited to pre-IPO secondary marketplaces and funds (accredited investors) or tender offers; after listing, the shares trade on the exchange under the new ticker.
