Terra Innovatum and GSR III Acquisition Corp. Announce Effectiveness of S-4 and Set Extraordinary General Meeting Date to Approve Business Combination
Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders to be Held on October 7, 2025
NEW YORK and AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terra Innovatum Srl (“Terra Innovatum,” or the “Company”), a developer of micro-modular nuclear reactors, and GSR III Acquisition Corp. ("GSRT") (Nasdaq: GSRT), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, today announced that on September 12, 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) declared effective the registration statement on Form S-4, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), in connection with the previously announced proposed business combination between Terra Innovatum and GSRT.
Alessandro Petruzzi, Co-Founder & CEO of Terra Innovatum commented: "The effectiveness of our S-4 is a major step towards bringing Terra Innovatum to the public markets. In the last several months, we’ve built a strong foundation to support the commercialization of our micro-modular reactors: signed MOUs for the supply and manufacture of every major nuclear component for our reactors, selected our first deployment site, generated strong early customer interest through order MOUs, and significantly advanced our progress with the NRC. With the proceeds from this transaction, we will be positioned to accelerate our mission to deliver low-cost, zero-carbon, and reliable energy where it’s needed most.”
