DAI is a member-led investment company made up of like-minded individuals. We are passionate about entrepreneurs and teams that can take their ideas from proof of concept to customer traction to scale with drive, energy, determination and ambition. We invest in seed and early-stage technology companies with high growth potential. What makes us different is that we are not a fund. The members of Dubai Angel Investors range from experienced Angel Investors and Partners in VC Funds, to executives of successful companies. Together, we leverage our collective experience as well as our extensive network of contacts to add value to our investees through our ability to open doors and to mentor them. A key part of our strategy is to invest alongside established venture funds that take the role of the lead investor and with whom we have close connections. DAI typically deploys between $50,000 to $250,000 in each of the companies we invest but our members can, and frequently do, co-invest with DAI. This means that DAI (together with co-investing members) have made a first-round investment of between $100,000 and $750,000 in all our portfolio companies to date. For portfolio companies that show strong traction after our initial investment, we might deploy additional capital to support their growth.https://www.dubaiangelinvestors.me/
