Top Startup Investors in Amman

Amman’s startup scene isn’t just buzzing – it’s electrified these days. Whether you’re building your first pitch deck, wrestling with your cap table, or sweating that next funding round, chances are you’ve heard Jordan’s capital is fast becoming the beating heart of the region’s entrepreneurial action. But energy only gets you so far.

Early-stage startups need funding – and not just friendly angel investors, but proper VC firepower. Securing the right term sheet can make or break your runway. That’s why rounding up the city’s most active venture capital firms matters, and why this list is neatly alphabetical (hate it or love it, it saves scrolls).

Bookmark it, share it, nag your co-founder – this is your Amman VC cheat sheet for 2025, based on the hard facts and referenced by many, including Arageek.

AB Ventures is the corporate venture capital arm of Arab Bank and a major backer for fintech innovation across the region. Formed in 2018, it operates with the sort of institutional clout most can only dream about, backing both early-stage consumer and B2B startups who are shifting the landscape of financial technology. Their approach is all about partnering with scalable businesses, powered by the network effects that the fiddly finance sector seems to crave. A strong bridge for any founder wanting a foot both in Jordan and the wider world.

AdamTech Ventures has carved out a niche for itself supporting promising tech companies at the Series A stage. Founded in Amman back in 2015, it takes a practical approach—offering more than just capital, but direct access to networks, knowledge, and guidance when things get hairy (which, let’s face it, is more often than most like to admit). Their portfolio includes some of the region’s headline-makers, with a knack for spotting Jordan’s next tech story before the crowd.

Arzan VC is Kuwait-born but has become a familiar fixture in Jordan’s funding rounds. Since 2013, they’ve shown a steady interest in software, SaaS, and e-commerce ventures with that special MENA growth pulse. With 30+ startups in the wider region under their belt, they favour teams with a fast learning curve and disruptive tech – and they bring that early support founders can only wish more VCs offered. Jordanian names like Repzo have made their cut.

Set up in 2017 through the combined might of Endeavor Jordan and Silicon Badia, BeyondCapital takes a sector-agnostic angle and puts the entrepreneur front and centre. Bolstered by USAID support, they’re busy bridging the gap between founders and the Amman investment community – whether you’re deep in SaaS or eyeing up a marketplace play. They don’t just write cheques, they connect dots across the Jordan startup ecosystem, accelerators, and beyond.

Since 2011, DASH Ventures has been at the coalface of early-stage investing across Jordan and the Arab world, especially where technology meets societal change. They’re big on sustainability, financial inclusion, and those creative industry curveballs that keep the wider ecosystem nimble. Known for taking the lead in deals and not shying away from rolling up their sleeves, DASH draws ambitious founders who are ready to scale and leave a real legacy in MENA. If you’re pitching a regional moonshot, they might be one of your first stops.

Flat6Labs brought serious muscle to the Jordan funding scene in 2021 with its USD 20M Jordan Seed Fund. Centred on tech-enabled sectors and running a proper accelerator, it’s all about giving founders that precious early burst—think up to JOD 50K for 10% equity, with a shot at bigger follow-on cheques. Up to 90 startups are expected to come through their program in the next few years, with support that goes far beyond a cheque: mentoring, practical advice, and a gateway to the wider Flat6Labs network.

Oasis500 is a household name if you care about the Amman startup story. Incubating dreams since 2010, they’re one of the original accelerators growing the Jordan venture capital game from day one—pre-seed and seed funding, plus training, are their trademarks. Their alumni list is like a Jordan founder all-star team, from Bilforon to Tamatem Inc. If you’re after operational help as much as funding, this is one of the friendliest doors to knock on (nailed-on job creation numbers don’t lie).

Not every investor in town gets their hands dirty, but Propeller has a track record for being particularly ‘hands-on’—think regular founder check-ins, cloud infrastructure advice, and real conversations about scaling pitfalls. Since 2015 they’ve put cheques (typically $150K–$500K) behind Jordan’s SaaS, enterprise software and cloud hopefuls. If you’ve got a disruptive idea and need both capital and a bit of actual guidance, they’re one to watch.

Relatively Fund has made its mark as a tech accelerator and VC, stepping in where traditional funding models might call it a day. Since 2017, it’s been backing disruptors in food tech, SaaS, marketplaces and AI—aiming at founders who need more than just some capital. Think $50K+ checks, and the chance to plug into solid advice and operational backup so you can get your startup to that all-important product-market fit.

If there’s a regional VC name that carries global weight, Silicon Badia is it. Based in Amman, they’ve been driving tech deals both locally and across borders since 2011, backing leading teams in everything from B2B software to education, finance, and life sciences. Their partnership with Endeavor Jordan helped create BeyondCapital, signalling a drive to build not just start-ups, but whole startup communities. Their portfolio is as varied as it gets, and their networks run deep.

There it is—an up-to-date sweep of the sharpest VC funds hustling across Amman’s startup ecosystem in 2025. Whether you’re a founder, a frustrated operator, or grinding through your first term sheet, this list is a decent place to start scoping the right money for your journey. Stay curious, stay scrappy, and remember (as Arageek often points out), Jordan’s still only just getting started.
