NautaDutilh assisted with the cross-border merger between Atai Beckley N.V. and atai Life Sciences Luxembourg S.A., followed by a redomiciliation to the U.S. As part of the transaction, all issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Atai Beckley N.V. were exchanged on a one-for-one basis for newly issued shares of common stock in AtaiBeckley Inc., which continues to trade on NASDAQ under the symbol “ATAI.”

This transaction was a combined effort by our Dutch and Luxembourg offices, working closely with the U.S. team at Latham & Watkins.

We are delighted to have assisted ATAI in this strategic move, which is expected to simplify its corporate structure, align with its U.S. listing and shareholder base
