WeWork, a fast-growing but unprofitable real estate firm headquartered in New York, which leased shared office space around the world, announced in September 2019 that it was cancelling its plans for an initial public offering (IPO). In late 2020, as the company weathered the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, several special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) approached WeWork, offering an increasingly popular alternative method for the company's shares to become publicly traded. In January 2021, WeWork's new chief executive officer (CEO) was considering an offer from BowX Acquisition Corp., a "blank check" corporation. The CEO and the WeWork board needed to understand the benefits and disadvantages of a SPAC merger. Mark Simonson is affiliated with Arizona State University.
