About
Integrated Wellness Acquisition Corp. (OTC: WELNF) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Island exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.
While we may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any industry or sector, we intend to focus on businesses in the health, nutrition, fitness, wellness and beauty sectors and the products, devices, applications and technology driving growth within these verticals. Our management team and board of directors have extensive knowledge and relationships within these markets, and we intend to capitalize on our ability to identify and acquire businesses that stand to benefit from our unique operational and strategic expertise.
Business Strategy
We have more than 150 years of business experience in the health, wellness, beauty, finance, entrepreneurship and M&A spaces, including more than 70 years in wellness and beauty alone. We will have an international focus and believe that our creative, operational and board experience will be a major attraction to a company with international ambitions. We have extensive relationships within this sector built over many years which we believe will enable us to compile a list of potential candidates to merge with.
Our interest is in a business combination with companies and founders that are looking at the next stage and are attracted to a public listing. We believe our track records as founders and managers of successful business and the ability to tap on our resources and grow the business to the next level will make a compelling case for joining our team.
