Riyadh – Impact46 has invested $1 million in Sadq, Saudi Arabia’s homegrown digital-signature and workflow-authentication platform, as an extension of its pre-Series A round. The funding will be directed toward product development, enhanced security and compliance, and scaling go-to-market operations in the Kingdom and across the region.
The investment also opens opportunities for commercial and operational synergies with other Impact46 portfolio companies in digital infrastructure and enterprise software.
Basmah Alsinaidi of Impact46 highlighted the firm’s belief in Sadq’s founders, stating: “Our conviction in Sadq starts with our conviction in the founders: a deep understanding of the problem, disciplined execution, and an explicit focus on customer value. We see the company building a foundational layer of the Kingdom’s digital infrastructure through trusted e-signature and identity-verification solutions.”
Abdullah Allahuo, Co-Founder & CEO of Sadq, said the platform was created as a “sovereign necessity” to strengthen Saudi Arabia’s digital trust ecosystem. “Sadq was not built in response to a fleeting opportunity, but to address a real and persistent challenge in the market. The entry of Impact46 at this pivotal stage is a strong signal that the market is ready for sovereign digital solutions.”
Salem Albadawi, Co-Founder & CTO, added that the deal marks a pivotal leap in Sadq’s ambition to build a regional innovation ecosystem for digital trust, with products that meet local regulatory requirements while competing globally.
This deal positions Sadq as a key player in Saudi Arabia’s digital transformation journey, building secure and compliant e-signature and identity solutions aligned with Vision 2030.
