HOW WE WORK ?

MenaGurus's investors convenes once a quarter to review 10 business pitches. Afterwards interested investors are invited to engage directly with entrepreneurs to carry out due diligence, negotiate investment terms and legal documents. 

MenaGurus's investors invest their personal money, in return for an equity stake in the business we always seek a minority stake, not more than 30%. Our usual investment ticket range between 20K USD to a maximum of 400K USD. Commonly a group of investors will cooperate on a deal to share experience and due diligence workload. We are typically looking for 3-5 times the investments over a period of 3-5 years.

MenaGurus cooperates with incubators, accelerators and universities from allover MENA with focus on Cairo, Jeddah and Beirut. We are also approached directly and through our investors members and network.
