Valens is an Israeli provider of semiconductor products. Valens expects to hit a $1.2 billion valuation when it goes public. This according to a report in Calcalist.

It joins startups like Nayax, OrCam, Taboola, EToro and REE Automotive. Innoviz Technologies just held a successful $1 billion IPO last week. Playtika hit an $11 valuation when it went public in January.

The Valens initial public offering will be held through an SPAC. A special purpose acquisition company is created with no commercial operations and exists solely to raise capital through an IPO. They are also known as blank check companies. This type of vehicle for going public has been popular with Israeli companies recently. Cellebrite, a leading digital intelligence solutions provider, is set to go public with an SPAC. So are IronSource, EToro and Fundbox.
