The Growth for Good Acquisition Corporation (“Growth for Good” or the “Company”), a newly formed and differentiated blank check company, today announced the pricing of its initial public offering of 22,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit. The units will be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”), trading under the ticker symbol “GFGDU” beginning December 10, 2021. The offering is expected to close on December 14, 2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Growth for Good is led by Ms. Yana Watson Kakar, Chief Executive Officer, a seasoned executive and recognized leader in sustainable and socially responsible business and the Global Managing Partner Emeritus of Dalberg Advisors. Ms. Watson Kakar is joined by Mr. Vikram Gandhi, Chair of the Board of Directors, and Dr. Celeste Clark, Chair of the Advisory Board. Mr. Gandhi formerly served as Vice Chairman of Investment Banking and the Global Head of the Financial Institutions Business for Credit Suisse, as well as Co-Head of Global FIG for Morgan Stanley.
