Akama Holding

Formerly incorporated in 2008 as Mediaquest Investment Holding, UAE-based Akama Holding is one of the region’s largest, most successful and most influential privately-held media holding groups. The family office creates, acquires, invests in, and develops powerful media and tech companies for the benefit of all their stakeholders. It operates at the cutting edge of its industry and has grown rapidly through judicious acquisitions, wise investments, and strong management.

The company has built and nurtured several market-leading brands in the region. As well as forging powerful alliances with publishing and tech giants, Akama Holding has also invested in several promising businesses and start-ups, creating a media and tech powerhouse that thrives on innovation.

Akama Holding is now working on Akama Ventures, which will see the family office invest together with partners in exciting entertainment, media and tech companies in the region. It will nurture them through their next stage of growth through its proprietary ACE (Acquire, Consult, Exit) process. Akama Ventures will explore opportunities in martech, AI, gaming, AR/VR, consumer, and commerce, and take significant stakes in emerging businesses. It has already invested over $10 million in more than 10 companies, generating strong returns, and successfully exited from two.
