Angus Murray, Chief Executive Officer of The London Tunnels, commented: “We thank Euronext Amsterdam for their warm welcome. With the size and scale of both the equity and debt capital markets, the sound ecosystem and business environment in the Netherlands, we are confident that this listing will increase our ability to tap into the capital markets. We are happy to bring this new opportunity to investors as we will seek to raise capital over the coming years to realise our vision of creating an unparalleled tourist attraction. This is an important milestone in the development of the company, shortly after receiving the first planning permission from the City of London and we look forward to this next phase in our development.”
