Ahead of IPO, Facebook chooses firm to handle investor relations
Although the announcement isn’t official, AllThingsD reports that Facebook will likely name The Brunswick Group.
Facebook, which is widely expected to be filed by April (and hasn’t even selected its investment bankers yet), reportedly chose a firm to handle its investor relations.

Swisher added that the Brunswick Group had a leg up on the Facebook opportunity because it worked with the social network a year ago, when Goldman Sachs took a piece of the social media company and made shares available to some of its high-net-worth investors.
