Going public through a special-purpose acquisition company is officially mainstream. Special-purpose acquisition companies, once looked down upon by Wall Street-types as a less respectable way to go public, have been forming and going public at an unprecedented pace this year.

While last year was considered a record year for SPACs, this year shattered 2020’s record.
And in the past year, the companies going public are no longer the under-the-radar types. Well-capitalized companies with brand-name recognition, like genetic testing company and online real estate buying platform , are among the companies that have gone public through a SPAC.
Here at 附近上门 News, we keep a running list of the companies that have gone public this year. In the past, it鈥檚 mostly been comprised of IPOs, although there have been direct listings here and there. This year, we began keeping track of SPACs that completed their mergers and started trading.
With SPACs forming and going public every day, it seemed wise to keep track of the companies that announced they agreed to go public via SPAC as well: The announced SPAC targets, if you will. So, we scoured news reports and press releases and compiled a list of the venture-backed companies that have announced they will be merging with a SPAC. Companies that have been reported to be in talks to go public via SPAC aren鈥檛 included in the list.
