In this episode of The SPAC Podcast, Adeel Rouf shares his perspective on U.S. vs. non-U.S. SPAC deal flow and why high-quality companies from Europe and Asia continue to choose NASDAQ and NYSE as their go-to listing destinations.
While the U.S. capital markets remain the most liquid and deal-ready globally, Adeel explains that many international companies, especially in sectors like biotech, see U.S. exchanges as a strategic gateway to growth. Drawing from his recent Voyager SPAC deal with a Swiss biotech firm, he underscores the growing pipeline of non-U.S. targets that want access to U.S. investor capital while maintaining global operations.
