NEW YORK & TEL AVIV - Cyabra Strategy Ltd., a firm specializing in AI tools to counter disinformation, has announced a definitive merger agreement with Trailblazer Merger Corporation I (NASDAQ: TBMC), a special purpose acquisition company. This business combination, expected to close in the first quarter of 2025, is set to result in Cyabra being publicly listed on NASDAQ.

The merger values Cyabra at an enterprise value of $70 million. The transaction has received unanimous approval from the boards of directors of both Cyabra and Trailblazer. The completion of the deal is contingent upon approval from the stockholders of both companies and other customary closing conditions, including a registration statement being declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Cyabra, founded by veterans of Israeli intelligence units, has developed proprietary AI technology that helps identify and combat disinformation campaigns on social media. This technology is used by governments and corporations worldwide to protect against the spread of false narratives that can undermine trust in various institutions.

Dan Brahmy, CEO and co-founder of Cyabra, emphasized the company's role in the ongoing fight to restore digital trust, highlighting their sophisticated algorithms and data analytics used to detect bot activity.

The announcement comes at a time when disinformation is considered a significant risk to global stability and economic security, with the World Economic Forum's 2024 Global Risks Report citing it as the most significant short-term risk facing humanity. The economic impact of disinformation is estimated to be $78 billion, as per a study by the University of Baltimore and CHEQ.
