?We?ll Do Everything We Can to Get Twitter IPO? ? Nasdaq

The man who oversees the listings business at transatlantic stock exchange?Nasdaq OMX?is not giving up on attracting Twitter?s initial public offering.

In an interview with sister title Financial News today, Bruce Aust, the head of the global corporate client group at Nasdaq, said the exchange still wants to add Twitter to its stable of technology companies, which also includes the giant tech stocks of?Google?and?Apple. It did, of course, have a very public glitch this summer, and then of course, there?s that Facebook IPO.

Financial News asked Mr. Aust whether, in the light of reports that the smart money may be betting Twitter would choose to list on NYSE Euronext, would he still be working on attracting the listing?

?We?ll do everything we can to win that listing. We?re the natural home for technology companies and we?ve got the largest tech companies in the world listed on Nasdaq so I think we would be the natural home for them.?

The rest of Mr. Aust?s interview, in which he talks about nine new Nasdaq listings through Thursday this week, the European market and the exchange?s private company trading platform, can be read over at Financial News.

Twitter wasn?t immediately available for comment.
