Gender Equity Diversity Investments (GEDI) is a global impact ecosystem advancing women-led, tech-enabled innovation across the Middle East and North Africa.

Working at the intersection of investment and capacity-building, GEDI unlocks inclusive growth, climate resilience, and long-term regional stability.

Our platform is built on three interconnected pillars:

GEDI Foundation: Builds founder capacity through mentorship, skills development, and technical assistance, while partnering with donors and multi-laterals to derisk early innovation and expand access to opportunity.

GEDI VC:  Designs blended-finance partnerships to catalyse private and institutional capital into scalable, women-led enterprises delivering inclusive, climate-aligned growth and measurable impact.

GEDI Network: An engaged and growing coalition of 270 + investors, operators, and domain experts providing market access, fractional executive support, and cross-border expertise. The Network actively sources pipeline, supports portfolio ventures, and drives value creation across the region.

Together, these pillars connect capital, capacity, and community to transform overlooked talent into investable opportunity, proving that women deliver financial value, sustainability, and stability.
