Mosaic later changed its name to Netscape, which went public in New York in 1995. Thanks to Mr. Meeker's relationship with Netscape's founders, Morgan Stanley was the lead underwriter on the company's initial public offering.
When Netscape closed its first day of trading on Aug. 9, its stock jumped from its IPO price of $14 to $75, a then-record first-day gain for a public company. That year's Netscape IPO also became a symbol of the advent of the Internet era.
