Description
We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Throughout this prospectus, we will refer to this as our initial business combination. We have not selected any potential business combination target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any potential business combination target. Our sponsor is affiliated with Victory Park Capital Advisors, LLC (“VPC”), a registered investment advisor with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) founded in 2007.
