have extensive experience in identifying and executing strategic investments and has done so successfully in a number of sectors. While our focus is broad due to our perspective on technology and other growth industries, and Harry You, the managing member of our sponsor, having reviewed several thousand acquisition targets over the past two decades, we will be examining in particular opportunities in artificial intelligence (“AI”) and the AI infrastructure and supply chain ecosystem, including mission critical components, data, energy, and infrastructure businesses enabling the scaling of AI. This includes, but is not limited to, advanced nuclear technologies, such as small modular reactor (“SMR”) developers, supporting the growing power demands of AI datacenters, as well as other cutting edge technology companies positioned to benefit from long term secular growth trends. Our articles prohibit us from effectuating a business combination solely with another blank check company or similar company with nominal operations.

After we complete our initial business combination, to the extent permitted by its governing documents and applicable rules and regulations, the surviving public company could serve as a platform for future inorganic growth opportunities by increasing its footprint, areas of activities and extending the services it is providing to public companies and private companies intending to go public. Such inorganic opportunities may or may not be complementary to the business performed by the target company of our initial business combination. If we acquire a business or assets that are not complementary to such target business, such business or assets may not be able to leverage our infrastructure or operational experience, which may increase the costs associated with such acquisitions, and we may determine in connection with such acquisition or afterward to separate the ownership of such business or assets from that of our initial target business through a spin-off, split-off or otherwise. We have not selected or identified any potential target business or any potential inorganic opportunities at this stage.
