INVESTMENT STRATEGY
WAIP’s investment strategy focuses on making medium-term equity investments in companies in Europe and West Asia with the goal of helping these companies grow by entering new markets and expanding their market reach. We typically invest in late-stage growth companies with strong management, innovative business plans, proven revenue traction, and the goal of growing revenue and expanding across regions and markets.
We are particularly interested in ideas that have high barriers to entry, such as proprietary technology, patents, strong brand recognition, or exclusive partnerships. WAIP is open to considering new opportunities and welcomes entrepreneurs to reach out to us with their ideas and business plans. If you are an entrepreneur with a disruptive and scalable business idea, WAIP would be interested in hearing more about it.
