1) Interested in #VC #Impact #Investing in #MENA? 🤔

$444M invested in 403 deals across MENA impact startups b/w 2016 & Q3 2021!

However, this accounted for 7% of total VC #funding & 12% of transactions over that period

Are you surprised?

I just saw this quote in a presentation. This is incredibly insightful & seldom understood nor executed upon. It should be the first principle before ANY presentation you make (whether audience of 1 or 1,000)

@sarah_cone @abrams @Samirkaji @Beezer232 @cdouvos @ckthoms @jfreester @wintmead We were using Cambridge Associates too but they started charging for the reports :-( Shame as they had US and Ex-US benchmarks. Do you need to be subscribed to Pitchbook to get the <$250M fund benchmarks? Can't find them.

Charlie Graham Brown, CIO of @Seedstars, asserts that he once started at the grassroots level just as startups do: “We can share our learning and failures with these start-ups.”

I’ve never seen 11 consecutive pitches so well delivered and where the audience clapped as each startup showed their growth trajectory! Amazing night. Congrats to all. #MiskGrowth @MiskInnovation @VisionVCco
