Cairo Angels

Established in 2012, Cairo Angels is Egypt's first formal angel investment network, dedicated to investing in and supporting early-stage startups across Egypt and the MENA region. The network convenes regular investment meetings to review pre-selected potential investees that meet Cairo Angels' investment criteria. Members may join virtually or physically in either Cairo or London. While angels make their own investment decisions, Cairo Angels facilitates due diligence for opportunities that receive interest from investors, negotiates terms, and finalizes deal closing. Post-investment, Cairo Angels can also provide portfolio management services for its investors. Angels invest their personal money in return for a minority equity stake in the business and collectively make investments that range between 250,000 to 2 million Egyptian Pounds per company. Through its three investment rounds per year, Cairo Angels has invested $2.8 million in 28 startups across 6 cities. It counts over 20,000 followers on Facebook. Cairo Angels' investment strategy focuses on early-stage startups in the technology and innovation sectors, with a particular emphasis on SaaS companies. The network's members are experienced investors who collaborate to identify promising startups, conduct due diligence, and provide strategic guidance to portfolio companies. By leveraging their collective expertise and resources, Cairo Angels aims to foster the growth of innovative businesses in the MENA region. Over the years, Cairo Angels has built a strong track record of supporting startups that have achieved significant milestones and contributed to the development of the regional startup ecosystem. The network's commitment to nurturing entrepreneurship and innovation has made it a key player in the MENA region's investment landscape, helping to bridge the funding gap for early-stage companies and drive economic growth in the region.
