THE LEBANON GROWTH CAPITAL FUND 

 

The Fund targets businesses that are expected to achieve a transformational quantum of growth, potentially breaking into new markets especially through regional expansion and achieving market leading positions. The Fund has an allocation of up to 10% to invest in earlier stage companies with committed entrepreneurs and validated market needs, but with partially developed products or services that need funding and strategic support to approach cash flow positive status. In particular, the Fund focuses on companies where there is a demonstrated technology angle or opportunity to leverage technology to support the core business. The Fund’s size is US$ 50 million, with the objective of investing in a balanced portfolio of approximately 15 SMEs. It is managed by a team based in Beirut supported by the broader RED platform including substantial centralized resources in Dubai.
