‍Ajeej Venture Capital backs blockchain pioneers through Cabrit

Investing early in transformative technologies
Expanding Cabrit’s early-stage portfolio to 20+ companies

Ajeej Venture Capital, operating through its specialist arm Cabrit, has rapidly built a portfolio of more than 20 companies at the frontier of blockchain, decentralised finance, and emerging technologies. This strategy reflects Ajeej’s conviction that the most transformative opportunities arise at the earliest stages, long before mainstream investors are willing to commit. By backing visionary founders, Cabrit ensures that Ajeej remains at the heart of tomorrow’s digital economy.

Cabrit’s approach goes beyond funding. Founders gain access to mentorship, operational guidance, and Ajeej’s regional and international networks. This combination of capital and counsel is particularly valuable in emerging markets, where regulatory frameworks evolve quickly and cross-border collaboration is vital. Ajeej Venture Capital positions Cabrit as a bridge between frontier innovation and institutional-grade partnership, helping early-stage ventures grow sustainably.

“We believe blockchain represents the infrastructure layer for tomorrow’s economy — and Cabrit is committed to identifying and supporting the pioneers building it today.”Cabrit Investment Team

A diversified portfolio strategy

Cabrit invests across infrastructure (protocols, scaling solutions), middleware (identity, interoperability), and applications (fintech, logistics, gaming). This layered strategy spreads risk while maximising exposure to transformational upside.

Supporting adoption beyond hype

Blockchain has moved past its speculative phase. Cabrit focuses on businesses building real-world solutions with clear commercial models, ensuring its portfolio companies remain relevant through cycles.

Governance and resilience

By embedding governance frameworks and preparing founders for future institutional funding, Cabrit ensures companies are built to withstand volatility.

Regional positioning

Cabrit’s investments also help position MENA as a hub for digital innovation, attracting talent, capital, and global partnerships to the region.

Long-term compounding

With a patient horizon, Cabrit is building a pipeline of businesses that will form the backbone of the future economy. Its role is to nurture these ventures until they can scale into Ajeej’s broader platform.
