Foundation Ventures, LLC
Foundation Ventures is a Cairo-based venture capital firm focused on early-stage and early-growth technology investments within Egypt and the broader Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Founded in 2019 (with initial operations and fund formation beginning in 2018), the firm serves as a strategic partner to founders, providing them with access to some of Egypt’s largest distribution channels. The firm is backed by major Egyptian financial institutions, including Banque Misr and Misr Capital, and its investment strategy is primarily sector-agnostic, targeting tech-enabled startups that demonstrate clear product-market fit or early revenue.
