In this SPAC Podcast Spotlight, Managing Director Dimitre Genov of Brookline Capital Markets breaks down the rise, fall, and correction of the SPAC market. He explains how SPACs were once primarily used for special situations, but during the 2021 boom became a go-to path for late-stage private companies, especially in tech, EV, and biotech.

Dimitre highlights the factors that fueled the boom, including low interest rates and investor appetite, and the challenges that led to the pullback, from thin due diligence to inflated valuations. He also shares how today’s environment reflects stronger discipline among sponsors, more public-ready targets, and a renewed role for SPACs in the capital markets.
