Canceled or postponed? Language learning provider Babbel canceled its planned IPO at short notice. The company wants to realize the stock exchange plans in the medium term.

Language learning provider Babbel canceled its planned IPO just a few days before the launch. Because of the “currently unfavorable market conditions”, the IPO will be postponed, the company announced on Tuesday after the market closed.
