Angel Investors in the UAE
The UAE’s angel activity is concentrated in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, each with its own networks, free zones and programmes. Here is how the landscape fits together.
Dubai
Dubai is home to organised angel networks such as Dubai Angel Investors, many founder angels from companies like Careem, and a dense base of seed and venture funds. See angel investors in Dubai.
Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi’s angel activity centres on Hub71 and the ADGM free zone. In December 2024 Hub71 announced an Angel Investor Support Package including a AED 150,000 incentive for setup and legal costs (source). Networks named under it include Falcon Valley, UAE Angels Capital Investment, Qora71 and the Emirates Angels Investors Association. See Abu Dhabi angel investors.
