III, sponsor credibility is a real entry wall: investors usually back teams with a proven SPAC record, deep networks, and faster deal execution. First-time or little-known sponsors have a harder time raising trust, so they often face weaker demand and tougher pricing than established teams. In 2025, that gap still mattered most in a market that has stayed selective after the 2021 SPAC boom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"lst_crct\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSponsor reputation drives investor trust.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProven deal history lowers perceived risk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnknown teams face harder fundraising.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbutton class=\"get_full_prdct_green\" onclick=\"get_full()\"\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-box-green-section4\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title-row-green-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMarket cycle dependence\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content-row-green-section blur_box\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew SPAC entry is highly cycle-driven.
