This move is especially significant as Constructor deepens its involvement in quantum technology, leveraging UAE’s robust tech ecosystem to drive advancements that will define the future of venture capital and global markets. The expectations are set high, as the fund aims to harness and contribute to the remarkable potential of this dynamic region.

Constructor Capital has a history of founding and scaling companies, especially in the B2B SaaS/Cloud sector, with over $1B in funding secured over 30 years. What differs Constructor Capital from VC funds is that its partners come from entrepreneurship. The group only invests in startups they can run themselves. The team has an unbeatable network of scientists with an average h-index of 88 including 5 Nobel prize winners and has successfully established over 10 companies in the B2B SaaS/Cloud sector. “We are incredibly excited to open our office here in Abu Dhabi. The Gulf region is fast growing, has a young population and provides an amazing ecosystem for tech companies and funds like ours. This why we decided to double down here and invest significant time and ressources in the region”, says Matthias Winter, Managing Partner of Constructor Capital.
