 believe can generate deal flow for us. However, our management team and our advisors’ past performance is not an assurance that we will be able to identify an appropriate candidate for our initial business combination or achieve success with respect to the business combination we intend to consummate. We may pursue an initial business combination in any business or industry. There is no restriction on the geographic location for our target search, and it is our intent to pursue targets globally. Although we intend to initially pursue prospective targets that are in the leisure and entertainment sector, which we believe have an optimistic growth trajectory, we are not required to complete our initial business combination with a business in these industries and, as a result, we may pursue a business combination outside of these industries. If we elect to pursue an investment outside of our director and management team’s expertise, our management and directors’ experience may not be directly applicable to its evaluation of the target company, and the information contained in this prospectus regarding that industry might not be relevant to an understanding of the business that we elect to acquire. Despite the competitive advantages we believe we have, we remain subject to significant competition with respect to identifying and executing an acquisition transaction. Furthermore, none of our directors or management team is obligated to remain with the company after an acquisition transaction, and we cannot provide assurance that the resignation or retention of our current directors or management will be a term or condition in any agreement relating to an acquisition transaction. We expect to encounter intense competition 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, domestic and international, competing for the types of businesses we intend to acquire. Many of these individuals and entities are well -establishedand have extensive experience in identifying and effecting, directly or indirectly, acquisitions of companies operating in or providing services to various industries. Such competition may reduce the number of potential acquisition targets available to us and negatively impact the acquisition terms that we are able to negotiate. For additional information, 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 rights will expire worthless.” on page 62.
