Leading venture capitalists from the Middle East and Africa, including representatives from Mubadala, Entree Capital, and Teal Capital, discuss a surge in regional capital inflows and the shift toward deep-tech sectors like AI and semiconductors. Despite persistent talent shortages and infrastructure gaps, panelists identify emerging local funds as critical gatekeepers that will validate startups before attracting tier-one international follow-on capital.
