The Saudi ecosystem
The Saudi support structure, mapped in Arabic and English
Venture firms, accelerators, incubators, angel groups and the startups around them, as categories you combine. Search works on names and descriptions in Arabic or English, every organisation carries both names and a website, and one click adds it to your companies.
For investors, the location filter does the same: filter by where an investor is based, sort by the biggest cheque or by who leads most, and send the view as a link. The same directory serves founders raising across Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman and the UAE. 
A seed round in Riyadh
Two questions, two filters
Where an investor says they invest is one thing. Where they are based is another. Find my investors asks both: FinTech, Seed, raising in Saudi Arabia, based in Riyadh, a $500k cheque.
The shortlist shows its reasons on every row: invests in FinTech, backs Seed rounds, writes cheques in Saudi Arabia, based in Riyadh, cheque range covers your ask. Being based in your city counts in the score, and the reason prints on the row. How matching works
