Deal significance: Mr Mackinnon said: “We are delighted to be advising Carbon Revolution, a client we have advised since its pre-IPO raise and IPO in 2019, on this complex cross-border transaction, being only the second de-SPAC transaction for a listed company ever announced in the Australian market. We look forward to continuing to advise Carbon Revolution on the transaction.”
