Distinct shells carrying a filed role for this person — not every shell they have ever touched.
SEC-verified vehicles of the same sponsor, predating these roles and carrying none of them. The badge counts them; the figure beside this one does not.
Mergers closed across all 6 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 6.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

Dr. Eric R. Ball is a Silicon Valley-based technology venture investor and finance executive who currently serves as Chairman of the Board of Archimedes Tech SPAC Partners II Co. (Archimedes II), a Cayman Islands exempted company, and holds a corresponding role at Archimedes Tech SPAC Partners III Co. (Archimedes III). Both SPACs are led by CEO Long Long and are comprised of technology investors. In his primary professional capacity, Dr. Ball is a Founding General Partner of Impact Venture Capital (Impact VC), a Silicon Valley-based venture capital firm focused on technology investments.
Dr. Ball's track record in the SPAC market is anchored by his prior service as Chairman of the Board of Archimedes Tech SPAC Partners Co., the first vehicle in the Archimedes Tech SPAC franchise. Under his leadership, that inaugural SPAC successfully completed a business combination taking SoundHound public in 2022, a notable exit that validated the team's technology-focused investment strategy. Following that success, the same group of technology professionals regrouped to form Archimedes II and Archimedes III, with Ball continuing in the chairman role and Long Long, who had previously served as Chief Financial Officer of the first Archimedes SPAC, assuming the CEO position across the successor vehicles.
The Archimedes SPAC franchise is built around a team of seasoned technology investors and operators, with Ball providing strategic oversight and governance as Chairman while leveraging his venture capital experience at Impact VC to source and evaluate technology targets. The SPACs are structured as Cayman Islands exempted companies, a common formation for blank-check companies seeking flexibility in cross-border merger transactions. Ball's dual roles across Archimedes II and III position him at the center of a multi-vehicle SPAC platform seeking to replicate the success of the SoundHound public listing through additional technology-focused business combinations.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001588852 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. 1 person shares two or more of these vehicles but is not listed above, because one side of the pair has no CIK. We also hold 103 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 43 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
