In this week’s North Texas deal flow, you’ll also find news about Taysha Gene Therapies landing a $50M investment; music tech startup MAX’s Series B raise; Dallas Venture Capital’s latest investment; Tyler Technologies’ $68M acquisition of Rapid Financial Solutions; NaturalShrimp hitting the Nasdaq Capital Market; and more.
Dallas-based NaturalShrimp doesn't need to set sail for its Pacific white shrimp—it farm-raises them at large production facilities outside San Antonio and in Iowa, using proprietary aquaculture technology that can produce a “crop” of shrimp weekly. With an even bigger facility in Florida on the way, NaturalShrimp is set to hit the Nasdaq via a SPAC merger that could net it $105M in cash.
Its CEO says the move has "the potential to significantly accelerate our efforts for commercialization and the ramp up of production of our fresh, land-based gourmet-grade shrimp at the largest indoor farming facilities in the U.S."
