With over 20 years of investing in the space, our founder has developed a deep expertise in luxury, design-led residential and hospitality properties. Today, we are active in the sectors of development, ownership, and advisory across the GCC and in select European markets, such as the UK, France, Spain, Greece, and Portugal.
This theme stems from our founder’s passion and patronage of the arts. It is further complemented by an investment portfolio in fine wines and luxury watches, as well as partnerships with leading European design furniture brands.
With a wide and solid interest in tech and start-ups, our core investments in this segment are within sectors that dovetail with the rest of our portfolio, including emerging opportunities in FinTech, PropTech, and ArtTech.
