Hope Ventures Case Study

The GCC is witnessing a new wave of hope as crowdfunding gains momentum, creating exciting opportunities for startups and investors alike. Despite facing challenges like stringent regulations and investor skepticism, the crowdfunding landscape is evolving, driven by advancements in technology and banking infrastructure. The crowdfunding ecosystem is projected to soar to $28.8 billion by 2028, a significant increase from $13.34 billion, reflecting a robust CAGR of 11.6%. 

Recognizing this potential, Hope Ventures partnered with Codebase Technologies to launch Beban Crowdfunding—a platform that connects Bahraini and GCC investors with innovative startups seeking capital. This solution enhances Hope Ventures’ entrepreneurial-themed interactive TV show, Beban, where entrepreneurs pitch their promising businesses to a panel of regional investors, securing immediate investment and strategic business development opportunities to accelerate their growth into new markets. 

Beban Crowdfunding amplifies entrepreneurs’ chances to secure funding while enriching the overall investment experience. Featuring a user-friendly web portal and mobile application, it enhances accessibility and convenience, enabling entrepreneurs to easily list their business ideas and run crowdfunding campaigns for vital exposure. Investors benefit from a dedicated marketplace where they can purchase shares and sell them in a secondary market, providing liquidity and flexibility. Additionally, the Private Deal Room offers an exclusive investing experience for premium customers, catering to their unique needs and preferences.
