Completed deSPAC · 1 SPAC · 1 closed · 0 announced
Social Capital Hedosophia Holdings Corp. (IPOA), sponsored by Social Capital Hedosophia — the venture firm co-founded by Chamath Palihapitiya — was one of the most closely watched blank-check vehicles of its era. The SPAC went public in 2017 and announced its combination with Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. in July 2019, targeting the commercial spaceflight and space tourism sector. The transaction closed later that year, making Virgin Galactic one of the first commercial space companies to list on a U.S. exchange via a SPAC merger. The deal is now closed.
