Andreessen Horowitz is making its first investment in the Gulf with a fundraise for a Saudi startup, as investors continue to sign deals despite the US-Israel war on Iran https://t.co/o7psQtwMK3
Stitch raised a $25M Series A, led by @a16z, with continued backing from Arbor, COTU, Raed, and SVC.
Grateful to our customers, who trust us with the systems that run their business.
Financial institutions still run on infrastructure that should have been left behind 20 years ago. Every other industry is being transformed by AI. Financial institutions are falling behind. Not because they don't want to. The infrastructure underneath won't let them.
@StitchHQ fixes that with a single operating system for financial institutions, unifying the ledgers, primitives, and workflows. One stack to build and run financial products on.
Thrilled to have @arampell, @jamdac, @dhaber, and the a16z team alongside us. And thanks to @ArborVentures1, @COTUVentures, @RaedVC, and @SVC_SA for the continued support.
We are thrilled to lead Stitch’s Series A, and honored to make this our first investment in Saudi Arabia.
@StitchHQ is building an operating system for modern financial institutions, starting in the Middle East. Its API-first platform enables banks, fintechs, and non-financial institutions to launch, scale, and operate financial products across a modular stack.
In the last six months alone, more than $5 billion has been transacted on the Stitch platform. Customer numbers grew 10x in 2025, revenue grew 20x, and Stitch has seen pull beyond the GCC into Africa and Southeast Asia.
Mohamed, Stitch’s founder, has the rare combination of relationships, sales instinct, and grit to win in a market where trust and distribution matter as much as product.
After years building conviction around the global fintech infrastructure opportunity, we believe Stitch represents the clearest expression we’ve found of what the next generation of this infrastructure looks like.

اللهم إنّا نسألك الجنة وماقرب إليها من قول وعمل، ونعوذ بك من النار وما قرب إليها من قول وعمل. اللَّهُمَّ إنّا نعوذ بك من قلب لايخشع، ومن دعاء لا يسمع، ومن نفس لا تشبع، ومن علم لا ينفع.
