Airbnb Inc., which is planning an initial public offering this year on the Nasdaq, may also list its shares in 2021 on an upstart trading venue for companies committed to environmental, social and corporate governance values, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

In addition to its traditional IPO, the home rental startup is weighing a dual listing on the Long-Term Stock Exchange, founded by “The Lean Startup” author Eric Ries, the people said. A final decision hasn’t been made and a move would come next year at the earliest, they added, asking not to be identified because the matter is private.
