Success Story: Raid AI

Raid AI, winner of the first place at the Arab Cybersecurity Challenge, has continued its upward trajectory following its participation as one of the featured exhibitors at the Egyptian Pavilion during Expand North Star 2024. The startup was part of the Deep Tech MEA, where it presented its AI-powered cybersecurity solution to an international audience of investors, technology leaders, and stakeholders.

Following its exposure at the event, Raid AI has successfully secured its first investment from a Silicon Valley-based venture capital firm, marking a significant milestone in its growth journey. This investment reflects both the technical strength of the Raid AI team and the increasing international interest in Egypt’s deep tech and cybersecurity sectors.

The success of Raid AI underscores the importance of regional programs like the Arab Cybersecurity Challenge and platforms like the Deep Tech in enabling high-potential startups to access global markets and capital. It also aligns with GIE’s broader commitment to supporting the development of a robust, future-ready cybersecurity ecosystem across the region.
