SPAC would value WeWork at $9 billion including debt, the people said. WeWork would also raise $1.3 billion, including $800 million in a so-called private investment in public equity, or PIPE, from Insight Partners, funds managed by Starwood Capital Group, Fidelity Management and others, the people said.\nIn January, The Wall Street Journal reported that WeWork was in talks to combine with BowX.\nWeWork is a big player in the market for flexible office space. It signs long-term leases with landlords, then after renovating a space and furnishing it, subleases small offices or even whole buildings to tenants for as little as a month at a time. Should the merger close in the coming months as expected, it would cap what has been a long and bumpy road toward a listing for WeWork.\nThe company is taking advantage of a torrent of new SPACs to accomplish what it failed to pull off in 2019, when public investors rejected the money-losing company and its visionary yet erratic leader, Adam Neumann, who subsequently resigned as chairman and CEO. Further hit by the coronavirus pandemic, which has emptied out offices throughout the country, WeWork has closed locations, renegotiated leases and cut thousands of jobs in a bid to slash expenses.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":false,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":352218281,"gmtCreate":1616977967943,"gmtModify":1704800274227,"author":{"id":"3572306676411693","authorId":"3572306676411693","name":"Horentine","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1fa0555375b9493883f89ad8e67f2205","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3572306676411693","idStr":"3572306676411693"},"htmlText":"Wut.
