Merak Capital operates a multi‑fund venture platform backing companies that define the next wave of economic and technological growth in Saudi Arabia and the wider region.
Our role extends beyond capital. We act as a strategic partner, providing operational guidance and access to a wide network to help our portfolio companies scale with conviction.
We invest across technology, gaming, and digital infrastructure. In technology, our focus spans enterprise applications, fintech infrastructure, healthcare technology, cybersecurity, supply chain, and developer tools. In gaming, we back studios, publishers, and the underlying platforms supporting Saudi Arabia's emergence as a leading market for the industry. We prefer models with recurring or repeat revenue, strong retention, and scalable distribution.
Saudi Arabia's digital transformation and regulatory programs create durable demand and clear paths to adoption. Products that reduce cost, improve compliance, and increase speed become embedded in customer workflows. A focus on retention, unit economics, and payback converts early traction into sustainable growth.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is our primary market, supported by local sourcing and relationships. We pursue selective exposure across the wider region only where it strengthens a Saudi platform or accelerates commercialization, and we participate beyond the region only where there is a direct link to Saudi demand or technology transfer.
Our process begins with a top‑down view of the markets we cover. By identifying the technological and economic shifts shaping each sector, we engage early with the founders positioned to lead them.
We conduct rigorous due diligence across technology, market, and team, combining quantitative analysis with qualitative judgment to build conviction and act as a reliable partner at the table.
We maintain active relationships with government entities and global technology leaders, translating them into market insight, commercial introductions, and an advantage in navigating the regulatory landscape for our founders.
