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 2 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 2.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

Philip Kassin is an accomplished principal investor, advisor, and dealmaker with over 45 years of experience across diversified natural resources, ESG, chemicals, industrial materials, and energy sectors. He currently serves as Chief Executive Officer and Director of RRE Ventures Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: RREV), a special purpose acquisition company incorporated in 2026 and headquartered at 5355 Town Center Road, Boca Raton, Florida. The SPAC, affiliated with RRE Ventures and chaired by co-founder and General Partner Stuart Ellman, raised $250 million in its initial public offering on April 30, 2026, with Cohen Capital Markets serving as sole bookrunner and left lead. The company is targeting businesses with an aggregate enterprise value of approximately $800 million to $4 billion in transformative sectors including technology, defense and space, robotics, quantum computing, professional sports, AI, energy, and power. Kassin rang the Nasdaq Stock Market Opening Bell alongside Stuart Ellman and Jeffrey Douglas Epstein to mark the occasion. He also serves on the SPAC's board of managers, which consists of Kassin, Epstein, and others.
Prior to his role at RRE Ventures Acquisition, Kassin served as President, Chief Operating Officer, and Director at RMG Capital, from which he brought SPAC leadership experience to his current position. He was a key player in the mergers that ultimately formed LyondellBasell, a top-ten global chemicals producer, and later served as Senior Managing Director at Evercore. His extensive dealmaking career spans decades and includes negotiating major transactions such as a refinery sale in France, as discussed in industry podcasts. He has also appeared in three SEC Form D filings as a Director, all dated February 11, 2010, associated with Boomerang Tube LLC, with total offerings of $15 million across those filings. His LinkedIn profile describes him as an accomplished principal investor and advisor in the diversified natural resources, ESG, chemicals, industrial materials, and energy sectors.
Kassin was born in 1958 and attended Syracuse University's Maxwell School. He is based in New York, NY, per SEC filings, though the SPAC's operations are run from Boca Raton, Florida. His FINRA BrokerCheck record is available under individual number 1698329. Throughout his career, Kassin has built a reputation as an industry veteran in mergers and acquisitions, with particular depth in oil and gas, chemicals, and industrial sectors, and he continues to leverage that expertise in leading RRE Ventures Acquisition's search for a transformative business combination.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0002130317 — 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 5 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 5 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.
