Soulpower Acquisition is led by CEO and Chairman Justin Lafazan, the founder and former CEO of tech firm Nex Gen HQ. The SPAC's may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business or industry or at any stage of its corporate evolution, but will focus on insurance services, retirement savings and other related financial services.
Carey Olsen partner Dylan Wiltermuth and associate Nich Vasic advised Soulpower Acquisition Corporation, alongside US counsel Sichenzia Ross Ference Carmel LLP. Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. is acting as sole book-running manager for the offering.
Dylan Wiltermuth commented: "We are pleased to have advised Soulpower Acquisition on their successful IPO and we look forward to supporting them as they execute their post-IPO strategy."
