Trevor Harries-Jones is a San Francisco-based technology executive and SPAC sponsor who serves as Chief Executive Officer and Director of Idea Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: IACO/IACOU), a blank-check company that priced a $350 million IPO on February 11, 2026, with Cantor Fitzgerald as sole bookrunner. Idea Acquisition targets businesses leveraging large language models and other AI tools, focusing on companies at the intersection of AI infrastructure and applied solutions, including AI software platforms, hosting infrastructure, applied consumer AI apps, model creators, and other foundational elements of AI transformation. Harries-Jones co-sponsors the SPAC through Idea Tender LLC alongside Ryan Shea, who serves as Chief Operating Officer and Director. The SPAC's board of independent directors includes Jules Urbach, Vinny Lingham, and Eugene "Rod" Roddenberry Jr. Harries-Jones has served as CEO and Director of Idea Acquisition since September 2025, and the company is headquartered at 1010 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 1604, Los Angeles, California.
In his operating roles, Harries-Jones is the Chief Operating Officer of OTOY, a cloud graphics company serving the media and entertainment industries, a position noted in connection with the SPAC's IPO. He is also a Board Member and Director of the Render Network Foundation, the organization behind the world's largest decentralized GPU compute and 3D marketplace, where he has participated in governance and integration initiatives such as the RNP-023 proposal that brought Render Network to Salad Technologies as an onchain payments layer. He has publicly discussed DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) and its potential to ease AI infrastructure constraints by enabling people around the world to share real-world compute resources. Additionally, Harries-Jones serves as Vice Chairman of Yola Inc., a website-building and internet software company, and has been identified as its Chief Executive Officer in multiple sources including Bloomberg and Crunchbase. He has been a Director of Ondello Inc., a telehealth company, since March 2017.
Harries-Jones has over 20 years of leadership experience with a strong background in internet and software practices. He studied at the University of Cape Town. His professional network spans the crypto, AI, and cloud graphics ecosystems, and he is active on social media under the handle @drjonessf. His career intersects several high-profile technology ventures: OTOY and Render Network are closely linked, with OTOY founder Jules Urbach also serving as an independent director on the Idea Acquisition board, and the broader team includes veterans from Solana Labs and other blockchain projects. The Idea Acquisition SPAC represents Harries-Jones's first blank-check vehicle, and as of mid-2026 it remained in the pre-deal stage with 100% of IPO cash in trust and a 24-month tenor to complete a business combination.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001374849 — 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 1 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 1 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.
