Online Forum, Sep 30th, 2025

Marshall & Stevens, in collaboration with Harneys and GigCapital Global, recently hosted SPACs Reimagined: Structure Smarter, Value Better, Execute Stronger, a webinar exploring the evolving landscape of Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs). The session highlighted key structural and regulatory trends, including the continued dominance of Cayman and British Virgin Islands (BVI) jurisdictions in SPAC formations and the emerging appeal of the BVI for certain sponsors. Experts examined how the SEC’s new rules are driving greater transparency in fairness opinions, emphasizing the need for defensible valuation methodologies and comprehensive disclosures. Dr. Avi Katz of GigCapital Global shared insights on sustainable SPAC sponsorship, underscoring mentorship, collaboration, and integrity as the cornerstones of long-term success. The event underscored Marshall & Stevens’ commitment to thought leadership and innovation in navigating today’s complex SPAC environment.

Online Forum, Sep 10th and 17th, 2025

Marshall & Stevens hosted a two-part virtual series, the Data Centers Forum, uniting industry leaders to explore the forces shaping the future of digital infrastructure. The sessions, Part One: Power, Financing & Alternative Investments and Part Two: Construction, Infrastructure, Energy, Cooling & Connectivity, examined how energy availability, cost, and reliability have become the defining factors for data center viability and investment strategy.

Key discussions focused on financing and investor dynamics as well as operational innovations like modular construction, efficient cooling, and integrated energy systems. Across both sessions, experts emphasized that power scarcity is the ultimate constraint on data center expansion, making creative financing, technological adaptability, and sustainable energy solutions essential for continued growth.

This forum and its accompanying Industry Insights report reflect Marshall & Stevens’ commitment to advancing thought leadership in valuation and infrastructure advisory, while connecting developers, investors, and strategists driving the next generation of energy-smart data centers.

Wind Repowering & Tax Credit Strategies under the One Big Beautiful Bill
Aug. 27th, 2025

Marshall & Stevens and DWT (formerly Deutsch Windtechnik) co-hosted Wind Repowering & Tax Credit Strategies under the One Big Beautiful Bill, a webinar bringing together energy industry leaders to address the rapidly evolving landscape of renewable energy incentives and compliance. The session examined the implications of the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) for wind asset owners and operators, highlighting key considerations between Production Tax Credits (PTC) and Investment Tax Credits (ITC), as well as the timing and impact of safe harboring provisions on repowering projects.

Speakers Tyler Gifford of DWT and Fernando Sosa of Marshall & Stevens discussed how to navigate Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) compliance and develop financing and operational strategies that maximize value before incentives phase out. Together, the hosts provided practical insights and actionable guidance to help wind power stakeholders strengthen compliance, optimize project economics, and position themselves for long-term success in a changing policy and energy environment.
