ASPAU ABRI SPAC I Inc

Abri SPAC I, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASPA, ASPAW, ASPAU, “Abri”), a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), today announced the closing of its previously announced business combination (the “Merger”) with DLQ, Inc., a provider of e-commerce and digital customer acquisition solutions for digital advertising, and a subsidiary of Logiq, Inc (OTCQX: LGIQ). The common stock of the combined company, which will operate as “Collective Audience, Inc.” (“Collective Audience”), is expected to commence trading on Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “CAUD” on November 3, 2023. Upon closing of the Merger, the previously-trading units of Abri ceased to trade and were separated into their component parts.

After the closing, the combined company will be led by Mr. Brent Suen and will be supported by an experienced 5-member board. “The ability to list upon a senior stock exchange with a streamlined capital structure and enhanced financial profile was well worth the extended timeline to close the merger,” said Mr. Brent Suen, CEO of DLQ, Inc.

Jeffrey Tirman, CEO and Chairman of Abri stated: “We are very pleased to finalize our merger with Collective Audience Inc. We believe that their focus on cutting edge customer acquisition and digital outreach is the future for high value-add targeted digital marketing.”
