- Duddell Street Acquisition Corp. (DSACU) is a Cayman Islands-incorporated blank check company, or special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), formed in November 2020 to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses, with a focus on opportunities in Asia across various sectors including technology, media, telecom (TMT), healthcare, fintech, and consumer industries; its principal products and services consist of units comprising one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant, which trade on Nasdaq under the ticker DSACU, supported by an initial public offering that raised $175 million in proceeds on October 29, 2020, underwritten by BofA Securities and fully placed in trust. Headquartered in the Cayman Islands and sponsored by Hong Kong-based hedge fund Maso Capital Investments Limited and affiliates, the company targets high-growth businesses serving global enterprise customers, particularly in regulated industries, with operations oriented toward Asia-Pacific and broader international geographies. In November 2021, Duddell Street announced a definitive business combination agreement with FiscalNote Holdings, Inc., a provider of AI-driven legal and regulatory data insights; the $1.356 billion transaction received shareholder approval on July 27, 2022, and closed on July 29, 2022, resulting in FiscalNote becoming a publicly traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker NOTE, with up to $425 million in funding including trust proceeds, a PIPE investment anchored by Maso Capital, and a senior secured term loan, after which Duddell Street's independent existence ceased and DSACU units continue to reflect legacy trading activity.
