GLOWFISH CAPITAL
Glowfish Partners is a boutique business builder that invests in and creates early-stage companies within the Middle East and Africa. We believe in the 'old' VC model where we are actively involved in our ventures. We provide our exceptional talent with funding, expertise, and mentoring for ambitious projects that can quickly become real businesses. Glowfish prefers to invest in booming industries, in growing economies where opportunities are plenty but real talent is scarce. Glowfish is based out of Dubai. It was founded in 2013 by Wim Torfs and Ali Malik, both McKinsey & Co alumni.
