Overview
The Middle East/North Africa is the next great investment opportunity. The Middle East has a collective population larger than the US, the vast majority of whom are ‘digital natives‘ (e.g.; under 30) with great appetites for consumer technology products and services. The region boasts higher per capita GDP and more disposable income than India or China. In short, the Middle East is one of the technology sector’s high-growth regions, and offers tremendous potential for expansion in mobile, internet, social media and eCommerce services.
Like the BRIC’s and other emerging markets, local partners are key to success. Sawari Ventures is at home in the Middle East, and knows its culture, context and business climate. They have experience and relationships working with technology and investment leaders world-wide. They know how to translate local visionaries into global hits.
