Raiven built its first fund connecting global innovation centers and funding to Silicon Valley. The launch of Raiven’s second fund is a natural progression to expand our operations to concentrate on Dubai's flourishing global financial tech nexus and tap into its new emerging startup ecosystem and create pathways to high-value mature markets for investments.
The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) has emerged as one of the most advanced global financial centers, and serves as the foremost center of finance for the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia (MEASA), with a regional population of over 3.5 billion and estimated nominal GDP of US $12 trillion.
Focusing on the tech sector in driving that growth, Dubai has established exceptional support for talent and capital inflow while developing high standards of governance, excellent incentives for both funds and founders, and reduced friction by setting up the DIFC and associated programs.
Raiven chose Dubai and the DIFC as our new hub, where we especially see a unique convergence between African, Indian, and Eastern European founders. They bring exciting ideas, looking for capital and talent while building companies that garner market opportunities unavailable in other markets at such low costs.
Foremost, founders need access to high-quality knowledge, new markets, and smart capital. Raiven has already set up its network to facilitate this faster. We bring investors, deep understanding, and affiliated partners to the region to help build out the ecosystem. And we continue to bring companies to the region to grow and expand.
Raiven seeks the best founders employing AI, IoT, and other new technologies to solve complex problems by building highly scalable digital platforms, including Cybersecurity, Finance, The new 5th Industrial Revolution (smart manufacturing, mobility, High bandwidth Telecom), and sustainability (Food, Water, Climate-tech), health and energy sectors.
Raiven was granted a 3C license from the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). This fully authorized status provides comfort to both regional and global investors.
