25 S[k]aleUp Ventures was Spun off following a Journey of Accelerating MENA based Tech Startups in Silicon Valley

26 Our Founding Story At S[k]aleUp Ventures we are a team of mostly women who sit at different corners of the world.. From San Francisco to Amsterdam to Cairo to Dubai to New York to Algeria We came together to solve the biggest problem for startups today: Funding! (especially the startups in unlikely places not major tech hubs like Cairo, Iran, Tunisia, Ghana, aka: Emerging markets or the next billion markets).. We think it's ridiculous that today you can Snapchat yourself as monkey, and now ani-emoji, video-chat, swipe right a date, and even have a VR s*x partner online but to get access to smart investment/ capital for your startup -- sorry you have to move your business to a major tech hub n sometimes even live in a place smaller than a shoebox to access smart capital.. we were born to change that!

27 MEET THE TEAM Salma El Hariry C0-founder & CEO Hala Gabr Head of XD & Partnerships Veronica Murguia Head of Speaker & Investor Relations Tarek Nasr Co-founder & Chief Deal Maker Valentina Primo Head of Communications & Media Mona Makhlouf Head of Global Community Sherine Wafaai Co-founder & Chief of Product Noura Sudan Senior Innovation Analyst Zubair Paracha Startup Community Outreach
