Aria Ventures has announced a EGP 50 million investment initiative to back early-stage Deep-Technology startups in Egypt, with plans to scale this to EGP 200 million by 2029. Operating as a specialized venture studio, Aria Ventures aims to bridge the gap between cutting-edge scientific research and commercial market applications.
Focused on sectors such as AI, biotech, IoT, nanotech, robotics, and industrial digitalization, the firm provides not only strategic capital but also hands-on support—validating ideas, forming teams, and offering technical, legal, and R&D services to help startups grow from inception to market readiness.
As part of this initiative, Aria Ventures has also launched the DeepTecher competition to identify and nurture promising deep-tech innovations across Egypt. The competition includes mentoring, multi-stage evaluations, and the chance to secure funding and incubation through the venture studio.
“We’re not just funding ideas—we’re building companies from the ground up,” said Dr. Amr Al-Awamry, CEO of Aria Ventures. “This is about fostering a knowledge-based economy and positioning Egypt as a global player in Deep-Technology.”
