We invest in the infrastructure the world cannot afford to lose. Co-invest with us.
Mataana Ventures backs early-stage companies building resilient, impact-driven technology for the world's most demanding environments. We are actively building a network of aligned co-investors who bring capital, expertise, and regional relationships to the table.
What we invest in
Critical Infrastructure
Energy, water, telecoms, and industrial systems that underpin modern economies and cannot fail.
GCC-Ready Technology
Products with a clear path to deployment in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and broader Gulf markets, where demand is structural and long-term.
Resilient and Impact-Driven
Companies solving real industrial problems, not consumer trends. Technology that works in extreme conditions and delivers measurable outcomes.
Sectors of focus
What co-investors get
Deal Flow
Access to pre-screened, early-stage opportunities in sectors and geographies that are difficult to source independently.
Regional Network
Direct introductions to our established network of government entities, corporates, and operators across the GCC.
Structured Co-Investment
Clean, straightforward deal structures. We handle the operational complexity so you can focus on the investment decision.
Active Portfolio Support
We stay in the trenches with our portfolio companies. Co-investors benefit from our hands-on involvement post-investment.
Who we are looking for
We are selective about who we bring into our co-investor network. We are looking for investors who are genuinely aligned with our thesis, bring more than just capital, and are comfortable with the timelines and risk profile of early-stage infrastructure and deep-tech investing.
- Angels, family offices, and funds with a genuine interest in the GCC and MENA region
- Investors who can add value beyond capital: industry expertise, regional relationships, or operational experience
- Comfortable with early-stage risk and longer investment horizons
