Sawari Ventures is an international venture capital firm that invests in people turning visionary ideas into market-leading companies in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA).
It invests in technology-driven companies seeking to build new markets with significant growth potential and employ a full-service, multi-stage approach with a focus on early and growth-stage investing. A Technology, Media and Telecommunications firm, Sawari Ventures has specific interests in Arabic Web Content and Applications, Financial Services and E-Commerce, Mobile Content and Applications, Software-as-a-Service, and Converged Services.
To ensure that each company gets the support it needs to succeed, Sawari Ventures actively limit the number of portfolio company investments. This gives a high partner-to-company ratio and guarantees that our companies get the attention they deserve. Typically, we invest $250K - $1M initially and expect to invest $2M to $5M over the life of a company.
Sawari Ventures invested in 11 startups as Sawari and has more than 100 technology-driven startups through Flat6labs Egypt (its acceleration arm).
