"A diwan was the private chamber where rulers and trusted advisors gathered to make consequential decisions — away from the public."
Diwan Capital is that room. A closed circle where carefully selected members participate in liquidity windows and opportunities the public market cannot reach — curated by specialists across MENA and Silicon Valley who do nothing else.
Four verticals.
One discipline.
We operate across four interconnected venture capital verticals. Each window is curated and verified before it reaches a member. Nothing enters the chamber by accident.
We source across a two-way corridor between MENA and Silicon Valley — startups and VC funds, primary and secondary, from both regions. As a member you see it all in our chamber.
Series A through pre-IPO
Secondary transactions in high-growth private companies, available through our disciplined liquidity window model. Windows open quarterly.
LP Secondaries
Purchasing stakes of existing LP positions in established VC funds, at a discount, with shorter remaining horizons than primary commitments.
Early-stage co-investments
Co-investments in pre-seed and seed rounds led by top-tier VC firms. Members participate on the same terms as the lead institutional investor.
Institutional VC allocations
Small allocations in select VC funds distributed across our member base — institutional exposure at accessible check sizes.
Structured. Predictable.
Curated.
Diwan is not a robo-advisor, not a private stock exchange, not a crowdfunding platform, and not a wealth manager. Diwan is a software platform connecting private companies running liquidity windows, and VC funds managing allocations, with curated, qualified members to participate.
Liquidity windows can be structured as tender offers, direct secondaries, SPVs, block trades, or round-linked secondaries.
Windows and allocations open at scheduled intervals with pre-negotiated pricing, discounts, low minimums, and participation terms. Then they close.
The team's personal track record as VC investors
A glimpse of what members see.
Horizon AI
Vertical AI for regulated industries — compliance, legal, and finance workflows. Sticky enterprise contracts with high switching costs.
Early employee liquidity event. Shares acquired at a discount to last preferred round with IPO pathway in 3–4 years.
Sample window shown for illustration. All windows are subject to member eligibility and availability.
Not for everyone.
For the right people.
Diwan Capital is not targeting the ultra-wealthy. Our members are financially sophisticated, accredited members who actively manage their own wealth — but have been locked out of institutional-grade venture access. Until now.
You could try to do this yourself.
You have a network. You know people. Here's what else it takes.
Every window is company-approved
Every liquidity window on Diwan is coordinated directly with the company or the fund. The issuer sets the terms, approves the price, and authorises the transaction before it reaches members — which means zero risk of a blocked transfer, nested SPVs, cap table disputes, or legal friction at close.
Secondaries require deep relationships
Whether it's getting co-investments or low-minimum LP positions in top-tier VC funds, or getting the company to run a liquidity window for its employees or shareholders — it all goes to people already in the room. We have those relationships, built across MENA and Silicon Valley over decades.
Doing this yourself is a full-time job
Sourcing, diligencing, planning, and executing private liquidity windows, fund allocations, or co-investments in top growth startups and VC funds, takes a dedicated team months to finalize. Your time has a higher use. We handle the prep work — you make the decisions.
Legal infrastructure is expensive
Each clean SPV, KYC/AML check, and doc execution costs $10K–$30K to run independently — plus ongoing reporting and tracking. We run the infrastructure and split it across all participants. You pay a fraction per window, with full transparency on what you're paying and why.
Membership is by
application only.
We review every application personally. There is no algorithm, no instant approval. We are looking for members who know what they want — and have already decided that venture capital is part of it.
We typically respond within 5 business days.
Membership is limited and reviewed periodically.
