On Wednesday, March 17th, at 4:30 PM (ET), we’ll be hosting Gus Garcia, former Head of BofA’s SPAC M&A on ClubHouse to discuss past, present and future de-SPAC combinations. Gus Garcia has led the combinations of ChargePoint (CHPT), Canoo (GOEV), Arclight Clean Transition Corp. (Proterra – not closed yet), Velodyne Lidar (VLDR), and NextGen Acquisition Corp. (Xos, Inc. – not closed yet).
However, it quickly became apparent that a lot you are Android users and as such, are not able to listen in (currently, only iPhone users are able to join).

Remember the metaverse? Many do not. Meta’s (NASDAQ:META) attempted transition to virtually living and working seemed to mark a trend that went up and down quickly, but one SPAC deal has both survived that roller coaster and may rise with a second. Back in December 2022, Newbury Street (NASDAQ:NBST) announced a $1.85 billion combination with...
At the SPAC of Dawn Tucked into the bill that provides $95 billion in funding to American allies passed by the House this weekend is another measure that is likely to have far more impact on at least one pending deal in SPAC world. It would appear that the timing was fortuitous for TikTok rival...
With the passage this weekend of $95 billion in funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan by the House of Representatives, some focus has gone back towards the defense sector, which has generally had a good year as a whole. But, SPACs have not been as active in defense, despite the fact that companies in the...
