What is Fundraising Support?

Fundraising support is the end-to-end advisory that prepares your company to raise capital, financial model, narrative and materials, then targets the right investors and manages diligence through to signed terms.

CFO Ventures offers comprehensive fundraising support across Dubai, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the broader MENA region.

We meticulously determine the funding round size, ensuring a clear allocation of proceeds and a feasible operational runway. Our team constructs investor-grade financial models adhering to IFRS standards, incorporating a dynamic thirteen-week cash flow forecast, scenario analysis, and sensitivity assessments.

All materials are crafted to meet DIFC and ADGM standards, and are prepared for Saudi CMA evaluation, including a one-pager, teaser, comprehensive pitch deck, and a well-organized data room. We strategically map the investor landscape in Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman, filtering by industry, investment size, and stage, and execute targeted outreach with regular pipeline assessments to maintain momentum.

We select financial instruments that align with Gulf practices—such as SAFEs, convertible notes, equity rounds, and venture debt, while clearly outlining cap table implications, dilution, and governance considerations. Our services include negotiating term sheets, aligning on valuations, setting milestones, and managing due diligence inquiries with auditors and legal counsel. Compliance is seamlessly integrated, covering UAE corporate tax, Saudi Zakat, and GCC VAT.

Our closing support encompasses conditions precedent, fund flow management, and timeline control, resulting in expedited decision-making, minimized surprises, and a funding round that effectively supports the next growth phase. For those seeking a fundraising consultant or capital raising services in the UAE or KSA that blend strategic insight with meticulous execution, we are prepared to assist.
