AI Transportation Acquisition Corp.

General Information
Business:

We intend to focus our search for a target business in the transportation field, including but not limited to logistics, new energy vehicles, smart parking, on-board chips and AI algorithms, automotive services and related areas of intelligent transportation. (Incorporated in the Cayman Islands)

Artificial intelligence is shaping the future of humanity across nearly every industry; it is already the main driver of emerging technologies like big data, robotics and IoT (i.e., Internet of Things), and we believe it will continue to act as a technological innovator for the foreseeable future. We seek to identify, acquire and operate an intelligent transportation business using AI that may provide opportunities for attractive risk-adjusted returns, with a particular focus on opportunities aligned with these industries. Global population growth and continuing improvement in global living standards, particularly in developing nations, is expected to drive ongoing growth in demand for intelligent transportation through AI and AI-powered technologies both for commercial and personal uses.

We intend to source initial business combination opportunities through our management team’s extensive network of automotive and automotive-related sector business owners, public and private company executives and board members, investment bankers, private equity and debt investors, high net worth families and their advisors, commercial bankers, attorneys, management consultants, accountants and other transaction intermediaries. We believe this approach, as well as our management team’s recognized track record of completing acquisitions across a variety of subsectors within the automotive and automotive-related sector will provide meaningful opportunities to drive value creation for shareholders.
