The SPAC Journey: From Private to Public
Understanding SPACs: Pathway from Private to Public
This episode explains how a private company can go public using a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC). The process involves sponsors creating a SPAC, contributing capital to reach the public offering stage, and placing funds into a trust fund. When the SPAC merges with a private company, the company becomes public, making its shares available to public investors.

I bring the experience of three distinct careers with me. The first is Military (USAF 10 years) then Foreign Military Sales (RSAF/RSNF 7 years) ending when I relocated my household Thailand to America to pursue graduate education. Following Thunderbird I worked in the Corporate World (Motorola, Oracle and Ernst & Young 8 Years). I was lured into Start-Ups by becoming the COO of a deep analytics firm. That led to a trail of start-ups, turnarounds, salvage or 'go to market' lower Middle Market companies on behalf of Venture, Private Equity, Hedge, Family Office and HNWI investors. Market Segments include hospitality, technology, professional services, military, aerospace and defense, process manufacturing, discrete manufacturing and financial services.
