 Re:    Colonnade Acquisition Corp.

Registration Statement on Form S-4

Filed December 22, 2020

File No. 333-251611

Dear Ms. Barone:

 On behalf of our client, Colonnade
Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), we respond to the comments of the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) with respect to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on December 22, 2020 (the “Registration Statement”), which comments are set forth in the
Staff’s letter, dated January 21, 2021 (the “Comment Letter”). The Company is concurrently filing Amendment No. 1 to the Company’s Registration Statement (the “Amended Registration Statement”),
which includes changes to reflect responses to the Staff’s comments.

 For ease of reference, each comment contained in the Comment Letter is printed
below and is followed by the Company’s response. All page references in the responses set forth below refer to page numbers in the Amended Registration Statement.

Registration Statement on Form S-4 Submitted on December 22, 2020

Comparative Share Information, page 49

1.
 Disclose pro forma book value per share for Colonnade and Ouster. We refer you to our pro forma balance
sheet comments below.

 Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its disclosure on page 50
of the Amended Registration Statement.

 Projected Financial Information, page 135

2.
 We note that the disclosed prospective financial information for Ouster, Inc. is a summary of projections
provided by Ouster to CLA. Tell us whether any other information was provided to CLA to support the projections. If so, disclose the material estimates and hypothetical assumptions upon which they are based.

 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

January 27, 2021

 Response: The Company has revised the disclosure beginning on page 135 of the Amended Registration
Statement to clarify the disclosure describing the material estimates and hypothetical assumptions that were provided to the Company and upon which such prospective financial information was based.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information, page 177

3.
 We note that the table on page 180 reflects post-merger ownership interests under two conditions: no
redemption and full redemption by former CLA Class A shareholders. Please expand your disclosures to clarify how the ownership interests of the various parties will change depending upon an actual redemption of CLA Class A between these
two polar extremes.

 Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its disclosure on page 180 of
the Amended Registration Statement.

4.
 We note for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as a reverse recapitalization of
Ouster, the equivalent of Ouster issuing stock for the net assets (primarily cash) of CLA, accompanied by a recapitalization. In light of this conclusion, it is unclear why you refer to the merger as a business combination or disclose why Ouster has
been determined to be an accounting acquirer. Please revise your disclosures on page 177 and elsewhere throughout your filing so that they are consistent with your accounting conclusion.

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its disclosure beginning on page 177 of the Amended Registration Statement
and elsewhere in the section titled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

 Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Combined Balance Sheet, page 181

5.
 Please revise the pro forma balance sheet to present first a Colonnade pro forma balance sheet assuming no
redemptions and a Colonnade pro forma balance sheet assuming maximum redemptions, before presenting the pro forma combined balance sheets. In separate adjustment columns following the Colonnade historical balance sheet, present pro forma adjustments
to give effect to:

•

 the liquidation and reclassification of $200.0 million of investments held in the trust account to cash;

•

 the payment of $7.0 million of deferred underwriters’ fees; and

•

 the reclassification of CLA common stock subject to possible redemption to permanent equity, assuming no
redemptions.

 Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has revised its disclosure on pages 181 –
182 of the Amended Registration Statement.

 Response: Given Ouster’s limited operating and sales history, Ouster’s management has
historically evaluated and currently evaluates the financial performance of the business primarily in light of Ouster’s sales and uses of cash. In evaluating sales, Ouster’s management focuses primarily on revenue, cost of revenue, gross
profit (loss) and gross margin, each as presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and as discussed in the section of the Registration Statement titled
“Ouster’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (the “Ouster MD&A”). In evaluating uses of cash, and given Ouster’s continued investment in innovation,
Ouster’s management focuses primarily on net cash used in operating activities, with particular attention to research and development expenses, both as presented in accordance with GAAP and as discussed in the Ouster MD&A.

3.We note that the table on page 180 reflects post-merger ownership interests under two
conditions: no redemption and full redemption by former CLA Class A shareholders.
Please expand your disclosures to clarify how the ownership interests of the various
parties will change depending upon an actual redemption of CLA Class A between these
two polar extremes.
4.We note for accounting purposes, the Business Combination will be treated as a reverse
recapitalization of Ouster, the equivalent of Ouster issuing stock for the net assets
(primarily cash) of CLA, accompanied by a recapitalization.  In light of this conclusion, it
is unclear why you refer to the merger as a business combination or disclose why Ouster
has been determined to be an accounting acquirer.  Please revise your disclosures on page
177 and elsewhere throughout your filing so that they are consistent with your accounting
conclusion.
