Shapeways (Galileo Acquisition)

We are a newly incorporated blank check company. While we may pursue an initial business combination target in any business, industry or geographical location, we intend to focus our search on targets operating in the Consumer, Retail, Food and Beverage, Fashion and Luxury, Specialty Industrial, Technology or Healthcare sectors which are headquartered in Western Europe, with an emphasis on Italian family-owned businesses, portfolio companies of private equity funds, or corporate spin-offs, and that have significant North American exports and a clearly defined North American high growth strategy. Our team members collectively have significant experience in middle market private equity and investment banking, and our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Luca Giacometti, has already sponsored four special purpose acquisition vehicles in the Italian market, all of which completed their respective business combinations.
