Blue Acquisition Corp. Launches $175 Million IPO with Focus on Sustainability and Tech
Blue Acquisition Corp. Announces Initial Public Offering
Blue Acquisition Corp., a newly formed blank check company, has officially announced the pricing of its initial public offering (IPO), aiming to raise $175 million. The company is set to offer 17,500,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, which is expected to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol "BACCU" starting June 13, 2025.
Each unit offered consists of one Class A ordinary share and one right to receive one-tenth of a Class A ordinary share upon successful completion of an initial business combination. There won’t be any public or private warrants connected to this IPO. After the initial trading period, it is anticipated that the Class A ordinary shares and Share Rights will trade separately under their respective symbols "BACC" and "BACCR."
The closing date for the offering is scheduled for June 16, 2025, pending typical closing conditions. Additionally, the underwriters have been granted a 45-day option to purchase up to 2,650,000 additional units at the offer price, as a precaution against over-allotments.
Company Vision and Strategy
Blue Acquisition Corp. was founded with the primary goal of facilitating mergers and business combinations across various sectors.

The management team is headed by CEO Ketan Seth and CFO David Bauer, both of whom serve as directors of the company. The Board of Directors features notable figures such as General (Ret.) Wesley Clark and other experts including Dino Dario Ferrari, Dr. Kenneth Moritsugu, and Nadim Qureshi.
