MENA Startup Market Reference

This survey was conducted in 2022

Starting a tech startup in MENA has its challenges, one of which is knowing what is the standard practice for salaries, valuation, structure and many others questions one needs to know when they are running their own startup, and we, as founders, end up relying on data from startups based in the US or other worldwide references which don’t always translate well in the region’s common practice.
