Investing to accelerate founders —
and the impact they create.

An early-stage investor backing bold founders across MENA, where commercial growth and measured impact are both accelerated.

What We Do

Investing to Accelerate

We invest in early-stage MENA founders and the impact they create — with capital and support built to help both grow.

Right-Sized Capital

$25K–$100K USD per-company checks, sized for early-stage, real-economy founders.

Measured Impact

Every investment tracked against clear, sector-relevant KPIs.

Hands-On Acceleration

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.

Where We Invest

We Invest in Impact

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.

Local Economy

Ventures that strengthen local industries, replace imported goods, and create dignified jobs.

Green Economy

Climate-forward ventures reducing waste and building sustainable, locally-made alternatives.

Heritage & Creative Industries

Founders preserving cultural heritage while building scalable, revenue-generating businesses.

Impact is our lens, not a checklist. These sectors are where we focus first — but any founder delivering measurable impact alongside financial return is a fit for Soraya Impact.
Part of Something Larger

The Boutique Investment Community (BIC)

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.
