Flat6Labs, the leading seed and early-stage venture capital firm in the MENA region, has announced the selection of 24 startups for its StartMashreq Growth Track programme. The programme, which is supported by the International Financial Corporation (IFC), aims to help startups from Jordan, Lebanon and Iraq scale their businesses and access new markets.

The selected startups operate in various sectors, such as fintech, healthtech, e-commerce and agritech. Five of them are co-founded by female entrepreneurs, working in edtech, energy tech and proptech. The startups collectively generate an annual recurring revenue of $20.8m and have raised a total of $38.5m. They also create around 700 direct jobs across the three countries.

“We are delighted to partner with Flat6Labs to support these promising startups from the Mashreq region, especially those founded by women,” said Abeer Shalan, Senior Operations Officer at IFC. “Mashreq startups can demonstrate resilience and innovation in the face of challenging circumstances and prove their ability to create value for their stakeholders by venturing into new markets. By providing them with funding and resources, we hope to help them reach their full potential and contribute to the development of the regional startup ecosystem.”

Ragia Amr, Programme Director of StartMashreq at Flat6Labs, said: “We are very excited to welcome the 24 startups to our Growth Track programme. We have been impressed by the quality and diversity of the applications we received and we are confident that they have what it takes to succeed in their markets. Through our programme, we will offer them tailored support and guidance to help them overcome their challenges and achieve their goals. We look forward to working with them over the next six months and beyond.”

The StartMashreq Growth Track programme started in June 2023 and will run until December 2024. The programme is part of StartMashreq’s broader vision to inspire and support displaced entrepreneurs, empower female-led startups in the Mashreq region, create more investment-ready businesses and integrate the regional startup ecosystem.
