In recent corporate developments, 17LIVE Group completed a landmark de-SPAC business combination with Vertex Technology Acquisition Corporation (VTAC) in December 2023 to list on the Mainboard of the Singapore Exchange (SGX: LVR), representing Singapore's first successful de-SPAC transaction. Under its 17LIVE Forward Strategy, the company has accelerated its transition into an IP-driven entertainment ecosystem, reinforced by the strategic acquisitions of Japanese VTuber agency mikai Inc. (operator of Re:AcT) and virtual talent management firm N Craft Co., Ltd. (operator of V-iii) to expand its proprietary V-Liver talent network, virtual intellectual property assets, and artificial intelligence-assisted virtual production capabilities.
