Taulia May Go Public in 2016, Sees Valuation of Over $1 Billion

Taulia Inc., a supplier of payments software, is planning to go public as early as next year and expects a valuation of at least $1 billion, Chief Product Officer Markus Ament said.

Taulia, whose products are designed to help suppliers get paid faster, would float 10 percent to 15 percent of its value, Ament said in an interview Saturday at the South by Southwest Interactive conference in Austin, Texas. The San Francisco-based company has been talking to investment banks, and hasn’t selected underwriters yet, he said.
