A founder-led venture platform blending advisory, ecosystem building, and selective early-stage investment activity.

Yassi Ventures helps B2B tech founders scale across MEA and the United States through GTM expertise, cross-border expansion support, and operator-level insight.

What We Focus On

B2B tech innovators transforming enterprise, AI, and deep tech markets.

Our interest spans two fast-converging regions:

MEA → Startups accelerating digital transformation

US → Founders seeking expansion into MEA’s high-growth enterprise markets

We help bridge both worlds.

The Gap We Solve

The Gap We Solve

Most founders face the same challenges:

• Entering or expanding into MEA without the right partners
• Building a GTM engine that actually drives enterprise revenue
• Navigating cross-border sales, pricing, pilots, and stakeholder management
• Understanding how to scale across markets without wasting capital

Yassi Ventures exists to close these gaps through practical execution, not theory.
