Your post is confusing. The way it is written, it sounds like you decided you wanted to have an IPO and so needed to come up with a business idea to sell. This is the opposite of what should be done. Traditionally one would have a business plan first and if additional funding was needed in order to achieve one's goals then a public offering would be one possibility to raise those additional funds.

He's only gauging interest right now.

I personally would invest an amount into it, but I don't know how much.

Perhaps you could set up your IPO at Havelock investments. Potentially, this could be the next asicminer in terms of returns, so I will invest a small amount into it.

Gauging interest in what?

"I've wanted to do a publicly traded company for some time and thought a datacenter / hosting facility would be the way to go. "

He doesn't even know what he wants to do. He might be trustworthy as an escrow, but as for investing in him, would not suggest. It sounds like Maidak wants to have a publicly traded company more for entertainment value than for anything else.

I do know what i'll be doing if I open a IPO and looked into it thoroughly. Its essentially expanding what i've already done on a smaller scale. First thing is certainly a fabrication run for bulk bitcoin equipment that will be setup and hosted. Hardware will also be sold at compeitive retail pricing. Anyways I just know not everyone has large amounts of capital to get the essential costs you need for hardware that will ROI. Instead of another cloud hashing gig I'm looking to do something different.

Exactly I'm confident in my idea and want to do it without hiding anything. Anyway only interest checking.

It also might boost possible investor relations if you weren't advertising a HYIP in your signature.

You also might want to reconsider: https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/sec-sends-inquiry-letters-hundreds-bitcoin-companies-unregistered-securities/

Signatures have nothing to do with this. As for unregistered companies this is exactly why i'm gauging the interset levels of people on bitcointalk who know my history on the forum. I dont want to invest the time and $ of my own in order to do this all by the books. SEC fincen and all other regulatory laws that come with it is something i'm well aware of.
