GHVI

Gores Holdings VI Inc

A special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) — a "blank check" shell formed to raise money and buy another business. Sponsored by The Gores Group, the private-equity firm founded by Alec Gores, it went public in late 2020 and merged with Matterport in 2021, taking the 3D digital-twin company public under the ticker MTTR. Matterport's cameras turn real spaces like homes and hotels into clickable virtual walkthroughs that real estate agents and builders use to show properties online. Its name blends "matter" and "transport," capturing the idea of transporting viewers into real physical spaces.
