Thayer Ventures Acquisition Corp.  (NASDAQ:TVAC) announced this afternoon that its shareholders have approved its combination with luxury travel service Inspirato in a special meeting held on Tuesday.

Thayer Ventures did not provide further details on the transaction, but the SPAC traded below its pro rata trust value of $10.20 throughout its redemption deadline February 4. TVAC closed 3.73% lower this afternoon at $9.55.

The parties closed the deal today and Inspirato’s common stock and warrants will begin trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market on Monday, February 14, under the ticker symbols “ISPO” and “ISPOW”, respectively.
