We are a blank check company incorporated as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands on December 18, 2020, for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or engaging in any other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”). Our efforts to identify a prospective target business were not limited to a particular industry or sector. We focused on seeking high-growth businesses with proven or potential transnational operations in order to capitalize on the experience, reputation, and network of our management team.
We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the private warrants (the “Private Warrants”) to our Sponsor that occurred simultaneously with the consummation of the Initial Public Offering (the “Private Placement”), our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt.
We have incurred, and in the event the Proposed Business Combination (as defined below) is not consummated, expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial Business Combination, including the Proposed Business Combination, will be successful.
