"Our listing on the NASDAQ Global Market represents yet another important milestone for our company," said Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, chairman and chief executive officer of KIT digital. "This will raise our visibility in the financial markets and open up KIT digital to investment from certain U.S. and offshore funds that are restricted from investing in Bulletin Board securities. We believe the NASDAQ Global Market listing will improve liquidity and, ultimately, shareholder value. Given the qualifications that were required for listing, we also expect this to enhance our status in the eyes of potential enterprise customers, who entrust us with their valuable digital assets."
