RIYADH: The latest wave of startup activity across the Middle East and North Africa spanned new funding rounds, regulatory approvals and product launches in construction technology, gaming, financial services, insurance, education and digital healthcare.
Companies are directing fresh capital toward technology development, market expansion and new products across the region and internationally.
Saudi-based construction technology platform Fitting raised $1.1 million in its second seed round, with participation from an undisclosed strategic investor from the contracting and real estate development sector.
Founded in 2025 by Mohammed Al-Mubayed and Abdulaziz Al-Mubayad, Fitting develops digital tools to automate construction supply chains and streamline procurement among suppliers, contractors and real estate developers.
The company will use the funding to expand across key Saudi markets, develop its technology infrastructure, and strengthen its technical and operational capabilities.
