Qatar-based Rasmal Ventures receives substantial backing from QIA to expand its selective investment strategy for innovative technology startups

Rasmal Ventures, a venture capital firm based in Doha, Qatar, has taken a significant step in expanding its impact on the startup ecosystem.

The firm recently secured funding from the Qatar Investment Authority (QIA) as part of its Fund of Funds program, reinforcing its mission to support high-potential startups.

Investment Focus and Target Sectors

The fresh capital will be allocated to Rasmal Innovation Fund I, LLC, the firm’s inaugural fund.

This fund is designed to back startups in Qatar, the broader Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and beyond.

It focuses on companies at pre-Series A, Series A, and Series B stages, particularly in innovative technology sectors such as fintech, supply chain logistics, HealthTech, B2B SaaS, and Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Expanding Reach and Strategic Growth

With QIA’s commitment, Rasmal Ventures is set to strengthen its regional presence and implement a selective investment strategy.

The fund has already attracted capital from a mix of institutional and private investors, including corporate entities, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals.

The goal is to reach $100 million in investment commitments, providing startups with the resources they need to scale effectively.

Leadership and Future Outlook

Guiding Rasmal Ventures are key industry figures: Alexander Wiedmer, Shaikha Al-Jabir, and Soumaya Ben Beya Dridje.

Their combined expertise is expected to drive the firm’s success as it continues to identify and support promising startups.

What’s Next?

With solid financial backing and a clear investment strategy, Rasmal Ventures is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the startup landscape across MENA and beyond.

As the firm expands its portfolio, it remains focused on fueling innovation and driving economic growth in emerging tech sectors.
