- Slam Corp. (NASDAQ: SLAMU) operates as a blank check company, or special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), whose primary purpose is to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses, with a focus on dominant market leaders in the sports, media, entertainment, health and wellness, or consumer technology sectors possessing innovative technology; it offers no current products or services beyond its SPAC structure and related securities including units comprising one Class A ordinary share and one-fourth of one redeemable warrant. Slam Corp. was founded in 2020 and is headquartered at 55 Hudson Yards in New York City, New York; it functions as a joint venture between A-Rod Corp., led by Alex Rodriguez, and Antara Capital, with global operational reach through its management team's extensive connections. In a significant recent development, Slam Corp. mutually terminated its definitive business combination agreement with Lynk Global, Inc., the satellite-direct-to-standard-phone telecom provider, in July 2025 following litigation settlement in Delaware court, after multiple delays, amendments including one in September 2024, and failed attempts to complete the merger originally announced in early 2024 that aimed to take Lynk public at a $913.5 million valuation; the company delisted from Nasdaq by August 2024 and now trades over-the-counter (OTCMKTS: SLAMF/SLAMU), with its trust account reduced to approximately $23.7 million by mid-2025 amid heavy investor redemptions.
