 and published research papers per capita in the world. Our intended industries of focus include verticals where our management team’s partners have historically invested and collaborated successfully. In particular, our management team believes their past experiences in the areas of mobility and electric vehicles, autonomy and robotics, agricultural technologies (Agtech) and financial technology (fintech) will provide access to a significant number of potential business combination targets in these sectors. We intend to focus our search on potential targets with a clear competitive advantage over other companies in their field. We believe businesses in high growth market segments with a business model that creates barriers to entry through disruptive technology will continue to produce attractive returns to investors. We believe there exist numerous privately held Israeli companies that are suitable to go public. Our management team believes many of these companies would benefit from additional capital that cannot be easily accessed in the private markets and are therefore open to engaging in a value -addedtransaction with an attractive counterparty, like our company. We expect to encounter intense competition, however, from other entities having a business objective similar to ours, including private investors (which may be individuals or investment partnerships), other SPACs and other entities competing for the types of we intend to acquire. In recent years, the number of SPACs that have been formed has increased substantially. Because there are more SPACs seeking to enter into an initial business combination with available targets, the competition for available targets with attractive fundamentals or business models may increase, which could cause target companies to demand improved financial terms, which could increase the cost of, delay or otherwise complicate or frustrate our ability to find and consummate an initial business combination. 113 See “Risk Factors — Because of our limited resources and the significant competition for business combination opportunities, it may be more difficult for us to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination, our public shareholders may receive only their pro rata portion of the funds in the trust account that are available for distribution to public shareholders, and our warrants will expire worthless” and “Risk Factors — If the number of special purpose acquisition companies evaluating targets increases, attractive targets may become scarcer and there may be more competition for attractive targets or such attractive targets may not be interested to consummate a business combination with a SPAC due to a negative public perception of mergers involving SPACs. This could increase the cost of our initial business combination and could even result in our inability to find a target or to consummate an initial business combination.” Our Management Team Our management team
