HQ Selection

One Region. One Home.

Idraak Ventures is selecting a single GCC country to host its regional headquarters, through a structured, criteria-based process.

Criteria

Regulatory speed and licensing

Neuroscience and medtech infrastructure

Academic partnerships

Relocation/visa support

Global connectivity

Local Capacity Commitment

The winning host government gains more than an HQ address. Idraak Ventures commits to real capacity-building as part of its regional headquarters.

Talent Development

Fellowships and training placing local professionals into neurotech venture and neuro-device roles.

Academic Partnerships

Joint research programs and sponsored fellowships with GCC universities and research institutes.

Co-Investment With Local Funds

Partnering with existing local venture capital firms rather than competing with them.

Knowledge Transfer

Bringing global scientific and commercial expertise to train local teams, not just capital.

This process is non-financial. It evaluates infrastructure and ecosystem readiness, not capital commitments.

Our Managing Partner and CEO and core operating team will be based at the selected headquarters. This determines where we physically build, not just where we register.
