Definition

A Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) is a shell corporation specifically created to raise capital through an initial public offering (IPO) for the purpose of acquiring an existing company. Once the funds are raised, the SPAC identifies a target company to acquire, and if the acquisition is successful, the SPAC effectively takes the acquired company public.
