It's been interesting to evaluate the MENA region in the current global financial climate. While the private equity market has experienced a notable boost in both deal value and count this year, the broader venture capital scene, despite slowing down, still posted the second-highest annual deal value in 2023. This growth, shown in a recent PitchBook report, is up sixfold from 2018 to 2022. Is the VC ecosystem maturing in the region? Seems like it! As we observe these developments, the Middle East's unique dynamics and potential are evident. How do you think the region will evolve? #MENAInvestment #PrivateEquity #VentureCapital #MarketTrends #saudi
