An early-stage investor backing bold founders across MENA, where commercial growth and measured impact are both accelerated.
We invest in early-stage MENA founders and the impact they create — with capital and support built to help both grow.
$25K–$100K USD per-company checks, sized for early-stage, real-economy founders.
Every investment tracked against clear, sector-relevant KPIs.
Hands-on support, backed by the Boutique Investment Community (BIC).
We bring together capital, measured impact, and hands-on support — everything a founder needs to grow.
That gap in the region's ecosystem is exactly why Soraya Impact was created.
We back founders who can deliver both financial return and measured impact. Right now, that means three areas of focus — though we're open to any venture creating measurable impact.
Ventures that strengthen local industries, replace imported goods, and create dignified jobs.
Climate-forward ventures reducing waste and building sustainable, locally-made alternatives.
Founders preserving cultural heritage while building scalable, revenue-generating businesses.
Soraya Impact is a founding member of BIC, which brings together investors, portfolio companies, and communities across MENA.
Being part of BIC gives us shared deal flow, infrastructure, and access to experts and networks — strengthening our investment process while diversifying risk across the region's countries and sectors.
Investing to accelerate founders — and the impact they make for people, planet, and local economies. We've just completed our first raise, with fundraising ongoing through 2029 alongside deployment and scale.
