The company plans to raise $300 million by offering 30 million units at $10. Each unit consists of one share of common stock, and one-fourth of one warrant to purchase a share, exercisable at $11.50.
Bleichroeder Acquisition III led by Executive Chairman Andrew Gundlach, the Co-CEO of Bleichroeder and Head of Goldiron. He is joined by CEO Marcello Padula, a former Investment Banking VP of BofA Securities and CFO Robert Folino, the COO of Bleichroder. The SPAC intends to target North American and European businesses that are being transformed with technology adoption.
