What separates a successful SPAC from one that struggles? In this episode of The SPAC Podcast, Mike Blankenship and Derek explore the key characteristics of high-performing SPACs in today’s market.
With nearly 60 SPAC IPOs in 2025 already, the data shows that most successful SPACs are led by experienced sponsors—those who understand the ecosystem and know how to navigate each stage of the transaction. Equally important is the strength of the advisory team, including legal, banking, and accounting professionals. With a limited timeline to identify and close a deal, execution quality can significantly impact a SPAC’s outcome.
