The company plans to target businesses in the technology, media, and telecom (TMT) industries with enterprise values between $500 million and $1.5 billion.
Roman DBDR Tech Acquisition was founded in 2020 and plans to list on the Nasdaq under the symbol DBDRU. B. Riley FBR is the sole bookrunner on the deal. It is expected to price during the week of November 2, 2020.
