According to Supreet Manchanda, Raiven Capital Founding Partner, Dubai and Abu Dhabi represent the greatest opportunities to invest in venture capital. “Dubai and Abu Dhabi represent unparalleled opportunities to invest in founders who challenge conventions to drive exponential growth,” he stated. “We are one of the few DFSA-authorized global venture funds in the DIFC.” Leveraging our global networks and deep operational expertise, we aim to amplify the impact in the future finance, smart manufacturing, cybersecurity, and sustainability sectors.
Instead of adopting a tactical approach toward the investment, Raiven Capital focuses on startups at very critical growth stages. Its strategy helps the firm catapult their progress and sustain for extended periods through operational excellence. Given its location in the DIFC Innovation Hub, a tremendous advantage is presented by accessing robust startups as part of the ecosystem provided there, which caters mainly to the MEASA region.
Paul Dugsin, another Founding Partner at Raiven Capital, said, “The establishment of our newest fund in the DIFC reflects our long-term commitment and leadership in catalysing startup innovation and building prosperity in the UAE and across the region.” In addition, he mentioned the significance of being a fully authorised entity by the Dubai Financial Services Authority, which allows Raiven to operate smoothly within the region’s regulatory framework while delivering value to both investors and founders. The firm’s capabilities reach into a variety of high-impact sectors: finance, smart manufacturing, cybersecurity, and sustainability. Leveraging deep global networks and operational insights, Raiven Capital works to build meaningful partnerships that contribute to long-term success for its portfolio companies.
Raiven Capital will be attending Abu Dhabi Finance Week as part of its commitment to actively engage in the region.
At the event, Raiven will speak on key emerging technologies, such as AI and IoT, and their role in advancing the 5th Industrial Revolution. These conversations will also discuss how venture capital can shape and transform future economies by enabling innovative solutions. With its strategic location in the DIFC and deep connections within the global startup ecosystem, Raiven Capital is uniquely positioned to drive impactful growth in the MEASA region. As the firm continues to align its investments with emerging trends and fosters innovation, it solidifies its role as a catalyst for change in the UAE and beyond. Through its strong presence within the DIFC as well as its emphasis on fostering cutting-edge innovation, Raiven Capital is enabling transformative growth while helping the company reach its full potential as value creation for investors in the long run.
