Initial investments are provided through the MENA Apps Seed Fund to innovative ideas and projects while additional investment can be provided through the MENA Apps’ global network of angel investors who are looking to penetrate and grow the MENA technology space.

Since 2011

MENA Apps was founded in 2011 by a group of leaders and top professionals from the Telecom, Applications, Media and Banking Industry who share the vision with regards to the need to open the door for young entrepreneurs from the MENA regions to apply their innovation and creativity and offer this innovation to consumers in the MENA region and around the World.

The vision of MENA Apps is to provide entrepreneurs an environment where they have continuous access to professional experience and networks have proven it success.

MENA Apps not only supports the entrepreneur with internal support like finance, logistics, marketing, branding and business support. The success of early growth companies is to get traction in the market and therefore the extensive network of the founders and management of MENA Apps opens doors for the start-ups at the major companies and institution in the region.

 Additionally, we believe that entrepreneurs need to have a regional and international network to succeed. MENA Apps is therefore expanding its network with other eco-systems and player in the region and internationally. We believe that entrepreneurs require continuous contacts with peers, mentors and investors elsewhere.
