In so many ways, today marks the first day of the next stage of our company’s journey – an even closer journey together between our two countries,“ Paavo Nõgene, Tallink Grupp CEO, said.
Adam Kostyál, Nasdaq Senior Vice President and Head of European listings, said that the secondary listing will enhance the company’s visibility and access to new investors.
