Klumi Ventures, the premier blockchain-native Venture Capital firm based in Abu Dhabi, and Solana Superteam UAE, led by Alex Scott, have announced a strategic collaboration aiming to accelerate the growth of the Web3 ecosystem in the UAE by leveraging the combined strengths and networks of both entities. The partnership will focus on expanding the reach and capabilities of Solana's technology, sharing expertise, attracting builders, and fostering innovation in the region's digital asset landscape.
Solana was one of the first foundations to form a strategic partnership with ADGM, Abu Dhabi, where Klumi Ventures is also regulated. Their strategic move followed the creation of Superteam UAE, dedicated to expanding the Solana ecosystem. The team, composed of a cooperative of creatives, developers, and operators, brings extensive experience in scaling technology businesses and is focused on supporting the most promising projects in the Solana ecosystem as they launch and expand within the UAE.

By aligning Solana Superteam's vision with Klumi Ventures' investment expertise, we are set to drive meaningful growth in the region. This collaboration supports our commitment to nurturing early-stage startups and enhances our ability to deliver innovative solutions for tokenizing real-world assets. We are enthusiastic about the opportunities this partnership presents and look forward to collaborating with Alex through Founder’s Villa, as we work together to shape the future of the digital assets in the region," stated Kristiina Lumeste, SEO and Founder of Klumi Ventures.
