Mr. Tuttle, the NYSE’s vice chairman and chief commercial officer, is the top salesman for the 228-year-old exchange. Companies raised $86.4 billion in IPOs at Nasdaq in 2020, compared with $80.2 billion at the NYSE, based on data through Monday. To win IPOs, Mr. Tuttle builds relationships with companies well before they go public. “He was calling at a time when it didn’t seem super-obvious for any company to be going public," Mr. Kawasaki said. Raised in the suburbs of Detroit, Mr. Tuttle started his professional career as a White House intern in 2002.
