Klaviyo: From Bootstrapped Beginnings to IPO

Klaviyo – the company that powers smarter digital relationships and makes it easy for businesses to capture, store, analyze, and predictively use their own data to drive measurable, high-value outcomes – began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol KVYO on September 20, 2023.
