At OWI, we know that a post-oil UAE future can’t evolve in a vacuum. It requires diversified resources, partners, patient capital, suppliers, and markets to create cooperative networks capable of meeting a sustainable, resilient tomorrow.

OWI identifies and invests in companies and licensed investment managers who have the expertise, opportunities, and operational / execution capability to deliver on OWI’s vision of meeting the needs of a changing UAE economy. We establish mutually beneficial joint venture partnerships, with partners who are focused on achieving impact, protecting capital, delivering a social ROI, and where the partner’s existing businesses align with one of OWI’s investment verticals. OWI provides strategic direction, value-add services contributing towards the use of strategic alliances, impact objectives and ESG, and importantly the introduction of patient capital.

Our research shows that business ecosystems that cross industries are better equipped to fuel sustainable growth than individual companies.

As such, we nurture a complex business ecosystem through strategic alignment with our partnership companies and investment managers across various industries. We create opportunities to coevolve capabilities and develop strategic alliances to work together or competitively around innovation and bring products and services to global markets through the UAE.
