Viaka

Viaka is a global platform that scouts, invests in, and supports exceptional founders connected to the MENA region and its diaspora. It features an Angel Network co-investing in early-stage startups, fostering a trusted community of founders, investors, and operators across North America, Europe, and the MENA region. The platform democratizes angel investing, offering lower check sizes, go-to-market programs, and introductions.

Founded by Hani Azzam, Viaka emerged from the insight that promising MENA-connected founders often lack comprehensive support beyond capital. The company addresses this gap by building infrastructure integrating capital, mentorship, and community, connecting diaspora talent with critical investment and operational guidance.

Viaka serves MENA-connected founders seeking investment and growth, and angel investors aiming for thoughtful early-stage engagement. It caters to professionals new to angel investing, offering a credible path. Viaka's vision is to establish trust, facilitate dealflow, and drive capital formation throughout the global MENA ecosystem, making holistic support standard for nascent companies.
