Home & Here : Sudan-connected founders, investors & builders in Riyadh

​Home and Here is a Sudan-connected convening in Riyadh, held the Saturday evening after LEAP. a small group of angel investors, founders and operators. Sudanese, Sudan-connected and building across the GCC, Africa, and the wider region. The timing is deliberate: LEAP brings the ecosystem to Riyadh and this is where the Sudan-connected corner of it sits down together for an evening.

​The evening takes its name from the panel at its centre a moderated conversation on two threads that run through every Sudanese professional's life right now: capital, access to finance and impact in Sudan and what Sudanese diaspora founders are quietly building in Saudi and the wider region.

​Agenda :

- Opening: Why We’re Here
Sudanese talent and capital are increasingly distributed, but the network does not have to be.

- Central Conversation " Home and Here "
Three to four voices on stage, forty minutes followed by open discussion.

• ​Home : Capital, rebuilding and impact in Sudan
  What can realistically be funded now? Where can private capital play a role? What does responsible investing into or for Sudan look like? How do investors think about impact, risk, infrastructure and long-term rebuilding?

• ​Here : What Sudanese founders are building from Saudi and the region
  What businesses are emerging? Why Saudi? Where are founders finding customers, capital and talent? Can the diaspora become an economic network within venture ecosystem ?

• ​Together: What happens when the two networks become one?
