The IPO is designed to appeal to various types of investors. FutureCrest expects to sell 25 million of its units at $10 each. Each unit will consist of one share of stock and one-fourth of a warrant. The warrant gives investors the right to purchase additional shares in the future at $11.50 per share. This arrangement allows people the opportunity to benefit if the company does well in the future.
Joining Tom Lee is Chi Tsang, the company’s Chief Financial Officer. Tsang is a former HSBC executive with a robust background in tech investments. Together, Lee and Tsang are a good team.

With support from Fundstrat and venture firm m1720, FutureCrest is in a good position to find valuable opportunities.

Many experts believe this is only the start of another wave of tech growth.
