BLDR Ventures
Industry Focus
Geographic Focus
BLDR Ventures is a venture building studio focused on building the digital infrastructure for a better MENA region where the future of work is freelance, flexible, or remote, and the future of learning is competency-based, accessible, and affordable. The studio acts as a professional co-founder, partnering with founders in the trenches to build businesses that last. BLDR Ventures typically works with founders after validating an impactful business idea and helps drive it to the next level through a structured four-stage process: Conceptualization, Validation, Traction, and Lift-off. The studio's core focus is on unlocking the potential of the learn-to-earn cycle across MENA, addressing the dysfunction in learning systems and creating infrastructure to support the growing class of flexible workers, contractors, and freelancers. BLDR Ventures helps founders develop their first technology stack, hire early talent, establish key processes, drive user growth, build their brand, and navigate early fundraising rounds. The studio operates under the belief that innovation must and can be deliberate, emphasizing failing fast and failing forward as the way to create the region their peoples deserve. They view the venture building approach as particularly well-suited to emerging economies due to low-talent density and fragmented ecosystems.
