            Corporate Partner Bill Hinman was featured in The Daily Journal in an article that discusses Simpson Thacher’s role in the historic Alibaba IPO.   The high-stakes IPO became the entire focus of the money raising industry at the time and is distinguished not only for its transactional value but for its complex, cross-border nature. Bill attributed the IPO’s success to the knowledge and preparedness of Alibaba’s management team, which helped to increase efficiency, our on-the-ground expertise in China and Simpson’s strong collaboration across offices.
