Aramco Ventures is the corporate venturing arm of Aramco, a world leading integrated energy and chemicals company. We manage multiple venture capital programs with a total AUM of $7 billion.

Investment Philosophy

The mission of our strategic venturing program – our sustainability and digital/industrial funds – is ‘to invest globally into start-up and high growth companies with technologies of strategic importance to Aramco, to accelerate their development and deployment in Aramco’s operations’.

Our Prosperity7 program seeks to invest in highly scalable ventures, led by world-class management teams, with disruptive technologies and business models, outside of the energy sector.

We aim to be a value-adding strategic investor. With an in-house business development team, we actively support portfolio companies in doing business with Aramco and accessing the Saudi Arabian and regional MENA market, including facilitating technical collaboration, piloting, business development, and accessing technical and operational expertise. We leverage Aramco’s extensive network of business partners, influencers, and access to capital. Our team of highly experienced investment professionals provides portfolio companies with guidance, support, and access to a global network.

We are professional and collaborative in our approach, working with founders, management teams, and co-investors to add value to our portfolio, seek win-win outcomes, and develop long-term relationships.

We invest across the capital stack, from the early stage to the growth stage. We also selectively make smaller seed investments in promising early-stage companies and partner with 3^rd party fund managers and other corporates in sectors and geographies of interest.
