Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 3.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

Samy Hammad serves as President and Chief Operating Officer of NewHold Investment Corp. IV (Nasdaq: NHIV), a special purpose acquisition company targeting industrial technology businesses, a role he has held since October 6, 2025 (with some sources citing an initial appointment date of September 19, 2024). He is also a Managing Director at NewHold Enterprises, LLC, the operationally focused private investment firm and sponsor of the NewHold SPAC platform, having been promoted to that role in February 2024. In his capacity at NewHold Enterprises, Hammad holds key responsibilities across the firm's current portfolio as well as on new transactions. He is also a managing member of the sponsor entities, including NewHold Industrial Technology III LLC, alongside Kevin Charlton and Polly Schneck, holding voting and investment discretion. NewHold Enterprises is headquartered at 52 Vanderbilt Avenue, Suite 2005, New York, NY 10017.
Hammad joined NewHold in 2021 and brought with him over a decade of experience spanning private equity, investment banking, and capital markets. Prior to joining NewHold, he served as a Director in the investment banking division at Citigroup from 2014 to 2021, where he covered financial sponsors and SPACs. During his tenure at Citigroup, Hammad worked on and completed over 45 transactions across the consumer, technology, healthcare, and industrials verticals, providing a full range of investment banking services including M&A advisory, acquisition finance, equity and debt offerings, and private placements. Notably, he helped raise more than $2 billion for SPAC sponsors while at the firm. Before Citigroup, Hammad worked in the leveraged finance group at CIT from 2011 to 2014, where he focused on middle-market private equity-backed companies in the transportation and aerospace and defense sectors.
Within the NewHold SPAC platform, Hammad has held several leadership roles across multiple vehicles. He currently serves as President and Chief Operating Officer of NewHold Investment Corp. IV, which priced a $175 million IPO at $10 per unit. He has simultaneously served as President and Chief Operating Officer of NewHold Investment Corp. III since September 2024, another SPAC that raised $175 million in its February 2025 IPO targeting industrial technology businesses aligned with "Industry 4.0" themes such as transportation and logistics, distribution and supply chain, and value-added manufacturing and robotics. Previously, Hammad served as Chief Financial Officer of NewHold Investment Corp. II, a $175 million SPAC that was raised in 2021 but ultimately liquidated in 2023. The broader NewHold SPAC franchise also includes NewHold Investment Corp., which completed its business combination with security screening provider Evolv Technologies (Nasdaq: EVLV) in July 2021, representing the platform's first successful de-SPAC transaction.
Hammad holds a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with a focus on Finance from the George Washington University. His career trajectory reflects deep expertise in SPAC formation and execution, leveraged finance, and sponsor coverage, making him a central operational figure across the NewHold platform's investment and capital markets activities.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001875942 — 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. We also hold 4 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 4 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.
