Pop Culture (NASDAQ:CPOP) stock is rocketing higher on Thursday after the company launched its initial public offering (IPO) yesterday.
Let’s take a deeper dive into Pop Culture and its recent IPO.

- Its goal is to “promote hip-hop culture and its values of love, peace, unity, respect, and having fun, and to promote cultural exchange with respect to hip-hop between the United States and China.”

- That includes using it to “develop and operate online content, develop a street dance training business, create derivative works of hip-hop intellectual properties, and develop hip-hop events, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.”
