Backing early-stage tech founders across MENA and Africa since 2021
-
We invest in founders and teams building real value — proven operators with a track record in company building and deep domain expertise, not just big ideas. People who see tech and AI not as trends but as forces for radical change across a region still being built. We back those with a genuine hunger for disruption and a passion for innovation — wherever in MENA and Africa that fight is happening.
-
As an early-stage investor, we know there's no one-size-fits-all. Early companies have to be adaptable, so we tailor our support to each company's goals and help founders navigate a fast-changing market.
-
We aspire to be the first money behind disruptive ideas and the exceptional teams building them. That means showing up early — often within a company's first 18 months, the phase where conviction matters more than track record.
We're really hands-on
Creating a new market and value network isn't for the faint-hearted. We've been there. Our hands-on approach draws on a combined century of building, operating, and scaling companies — making us the investor of choice for founders who want more than a cheque.
We're advisors you can trust
Disruptors aren't chasing instant wins, they're playing the long game, and that takes sound counsel. We back founders with a network of advisors spanning operations, finance, legal, and communications.
We're locals with a global mindset
Our roots run deep across the region. We're your go-to for market entry and sustainable scaling across the Middle East and Africa. And through our global network, we open doors well beyond it.
We prioritize values just as much as visionaries
We focus on delivering exceptional results with integrity, humility, and fairness. These values are at the core of everything we do and are essential for anyone we choose to partner with.
