We are Modus

Our Name

We are Modus, not Modus Capital or Modus Venture Builder.

‘Modus’ is a Latin word meaning ‘the way in which something is done’, ‘a particular way of doing something’, and ‘a mode of procedure’. The nucleus of our methodology, brand, and values stem from this definition.

Boilerplate

Modus is a Venture Platform comprised of Venture Building, VC funds, and a Corporate Innovation arm. We build, support, and invest in impact-driven ideas and founders, providing more than just the financial investment needed to succeed. By deploying operational, institutional, and financial capital, we create a foundation for the development of exceptional entrepreneurs and high-impact innovation ecosystems.

Long Description

Modus is a Venture Platform comprised of Venture Building, VC funds, and a Corporate Innovation arm. We build, support, and invest in impact-driven ideas and founders, providing more than just the financial investment needed to succeed. By deploying operational, institutional, and financial capital, we create a foundation for the development of exceptional entrepreneurs and high-impact innovation ecosystems in MENA and beyond.

Our core objective is to invest in people first, while creating profit, impact, value, and new opportunities through the startups we build and invest in. Modus’ three pillar approach has been designed to holistically align with and complement each other to provide full-circle support that nurtures the growth of tech and talent, and enables high-return opportunities without the traditionally associated risk of early-stage investing.
