QATAR TECH INVESTMENT POWERHOUSE TO UNFOLD ITS WINGS A NEW BREED OF TECHNOLOGY & DESIGN INVESTMENT HOUSE TO BE LAUNCHED AND SHOWCASED PARIS, JULY 2012

Qatari Aurum will be launching its first large-scale foray into the world of Technology and Design during an annual gathering of other GCC-based investors and private equity houses in Paris during July this year.

The newly- established group, comprising high net-worth venture capitalists from Qatar, is yet to launch formally but has already set about making waves in an industry reserved for Silicon Valley start-ups and traditionally large-scale US private equity houses. It is expected that the Group will announce its inaugural acquisition of equity in a globally established internet start-up at the Capital & Projects Exchange, Paris, France, July 2012.

The focus of the group is toward bringing a wealth of technology know-how in the internet media and software design services to the GCC region. There is a course laid out to use this investor insight in gathering the choicest design and development houses locally within the region and injecting them with world-class expertise, fuelling a technology-drive unsurpassed in recent times.

Qatari Aurum will also be looking at French and European markets for new and emerging technologies that both serve as choice investments and also provide critical enhancement to its overall strategy, to be the number one global internet technology investment firm.
