Firm extends institutional-grade strategic and capital advisory to small and growth-stage businesses across the UAE, backed by a team track record exceeding $3.8 billion.
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — Mintiply Capital, the Dubai-based investment banking and corporate advisory firm, today announced the formal launch of a dedicated initiative to support small and growth-stage businesses across the UAE with institutional-level strategic advisory, capital structuring, and financial readiness support.
The initiative marks an intentional expansion of Mintiply Capital’s advisory mandate — extending the firm’s capabilities, long reserved for institutional investors, corporates, and family offices, to a broader segment of the market where the need for sophisticated guidance is both acute and underserved.
The announcement comes as UAE small businesses continue to navigate a more demanding operating environment, marked by shifting capital conditions, rising operational complexity, and increased pressure to demonstrate investor-readiness ahead of funding or strategic transactions. According to the UAE Ministry of Economy, SMEs represent more than 94% of all companies operating in the country and contribute approximately 53% of the non-oil GDP — yet many founders lack access to the calibre of strategic advisory that larger institutions take for granted.
Through the initiative, selected businesses will receive support across business structuring, investor readiness, financial strategy, growth planning, transaction support, and positioning for future capital or strategic partnerships.
“Small businesses are the backbone of every resilient economy. In times of uncertainty, what founders often need most is not just capital — but clarity, structure, and the right strategic support to make stronger decisions. At Mintiply Capital, we believe sophisticated financial advisory should not be reserved only for the largest institutions. Strong businesses deserve strong guidance — and we have the experience and track record to deliver it.” — Hasnae Taleb, Managing Partner, Mintiply Capital
Mintiply Capital brings to this initiative a team with a collective track record exceeding $3.8 billion, more than 59 years of combined experience, and $480 million in funds arranged across strategic, corporate finance, and private capital mandates. The firm’s leadership includes professionals with backgrounds at Morgan Stanley, Nasdaq, Accenture, and the Dubai International Financial Centre, providing a depth of institutional insight that is rare at this level of accessibility.
The initiative also reflects the growing role of the private sector in complementing government efforts to strengthen the UAE’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. As the country accelerates its economic diversification agenda under programmes such as the UAE Centennial 2071 and the National SME Programme, experienced advisory support can play a meaningful role in helping founders navigate complexity with greater confidence and position their businesses for long-term, sustainable growth.
“We are not simply offering consultancy. We are offering the kind of rigorous, analytically grounded advisory that helps businesses make better decisions at critical inflection points — whether that means preparing for investment, restructuring for growth, or navigating a complex transaction.” — Hasnae Taleb, Managing Partner, Mintiply Capital
By extending this capability to smaller businesses, Mintiply Capital is reinforcing its commitment to contributing to a stronger, more resilient entrepreneurial ecosystem across the UAE and the wider GCC region.
