Zeytoon Ventures
Zeytoon Ventures partners with exceptional founders from underrepresented MENA communities and the global diaspora — backing teams solving critical problems with venture-scale potential.
Fund I focuses exclusively on Palestinian founders, where our team has the deepest ecosystem access, proprietary networks, and domain expertise across three continents. As the firm grows, we will expand our mandate to the broader MENA founder community.
We invest at the pre-seed and seed stages across AI, healthcare, fintech, energy, and technology-enabled sectors.
