The Middle East Angel Investment Network (MAIN), an umbrella organization of the leading angel investors, networks, and funds in the MENA focused on promoting angel investment, syndication and training within the region, has announced the launch of Angel Oasis 2019, the gathering of angel and early stage investors in MENA, which will be held in El Gouna, Egypt starting 31 October 2019. 

Last year, MAIN held its inaugural regional angel investing conference in El Gouna, which brought together over 130 angel investors, venture capitalists, and other early stage investors from all over the world for an intensive 2 day summit to discuss the latest investment trends, to exchange best practice and to provide training on effective early stage startup investing techniques. 

This year, the conference will build on last year’s success and will again feature high-level panel discussions that will cover sectors of interest, such as TransportTech, Fintech, Healthcare, Cleantech and Agtech, as well as  case studies unpacking some of the biggest exits in the region from an early stage investor perspective. In addition, there will be a series of interactive and dynamic training workshops designed for varying levels of expertise and experience, starting from beginners, to medium level of experience, and all the way to advanced angel investors. Next, in order to take full advantage of this gathering of early stage investors, regional Series A-ready startups will be showcased at a special pitch event during the conference. Last, but certainly not least, there will be a number of exciting evening events held throughout the conference that will facilitate networking opportunities between the attendees.

Event tickets are on sale now and, as availability is very limited, investors are encouraged to apply for their tickets immediately in order to guarantee availability and to take advantage of the early bird discounted price.
