The Deal Pipeline senior writer David Marcus talks to Donna Petkanics, a partner in the Palo Alto, Calif., office of law firm Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati PC, about whether engineers and entrepreneurs have accepted the idea of selling a company while private versus an initial public offering exit for it.

"There is a lot of pressure on them in terms of certainty versus uncertainty." - Sarah Hashim-Waris
