We invest in technology
companies and guide them
to their first $1M.
Bridglab is a venture lab for the GCC and Africa. We invest in technology companies led by outlier founders and guide them to their first $1M in revenue.
Thesis
Less than 1% of global venture dollars reaches the GCC and Africa.
Two regions with over 1.7 billion people, some of the fastest-growing economies on the planet, and a generation of technical founders building for global standards. And yet less than one cent of every venture dollar deployed worldwide finds its way here.
Bridglab exists to change that. We invest in technology companies, connect them to our network, and help them build until they cross their first $1M through a tailor-made venture builder program.
