Podeo, the leading podcast platform in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, has secured $5.4 million in its Series A funding round, led by Oraseya Capital, the venture capital arm of the Dubai Integrated Economic Zones Authority. This round also attracted participation from Razor Capital, Ibtikar Fund, Cedar Mundi Ventures, Samarium, and iSME.
Founded during a financial crisis, Podeo has demonstrated remarkable resilience, consistently expanding despite regional tensions and economic instability. This funding milestone represents a pivotal moment in Podeo’s trajectory, propelling its innovative platform beyond the MENA region and into global markets. We remain firm believers in the founding team and in the growth opportunities at hand. We continue to support and stand by Podeo during this next transformative phase of growth.
