Luxembourg, 11 May 2021 – Arendt & Medernach advised 468 SPAC I SE, a Luxembourg special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), on all Luxembourg law aspects of the investment vehicle set-up and subsequent IPO on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (General Standard). The business combination sought by 468 SPAC I SE is the acquisition of a single existing business in the technology and technology-enabled sectors, with a focus on the sub-sectors marketplaces, direct-to-consumer (D2C) and software & artificial intelligence. The chosen business must have its main operations in a member state of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland.
