The largest disclosed round in the 12 most recent Doha entries is Al Ahli Bank of Qatar’s $500M on 2025-03-25, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts ($4M for SkipCash on 2026-02-01 and $2M for KARTY on 2024-01-22). Most other disclosed checks are clustered far lower: $200K (cwallet on 2021-01-10), $150K (SHEQONOMI on 2026-04-21), and $100K (Sufra AI on 2026-04-14), with several rounds marked undisclosed.
The dates span 2021-01-10 to 2026-06-10, and four of the 12 entries fall in April 2026 (SHEQONOMI 2026-04-21, Sufra AI 2026-04-14, GRO Solutions 2026-06-10 is later, plus the surrounding April window), indicating a late-year clustering in the newest slice. Stage mix is skewed toward “Seed” and “Pre-Seed” among disclosed amounts (e.g., KARTY Seed $2M, cwallet Pre-Seed $200K, Sufra AI Pre-Seed $100K), while “Series Unknown” and undisclosed amounts appear frequently (7 of 12 rows are either Series Unknown or undisclosed, counting both fields shown). Sector-wise, “Artificial Intelligence (AI)” shows up in multiple entries (GRO Solutions, EMMA Systems, DBU Group, Darkocean), suggesting a recurring theme in Doha-funded activity.

Frequently asked
What’s the biggest disclosed deal in this Doha list, and how does it compare with other disclosed rounds?
Al Ahli Bank of Qatar’s $500M (2025-03-25) is an outlier; the next-largest disclosed amounts shown are $4M for SkipCash (2026-02-01) and $2M for KARTY (2024-01-22), with several other disclosed rounds at $200K or below (cwallet $200K on 2021-01-10; SHEQONOMI $150K on 2026-04-21; Sufra AI $100K on 2026-04-14).
Which part of the calendar dominates the most recent activity in these 12 rows?
Activity is concentrated near the top of the date range: 2026 contains multiple entries, including GRO Solutions (2026-06-10), SHEQONOMI (2026-04-21), Sufra AI (2026-04-14), and SkipCash (2026-02-01). The overall window runs from 2021-01-10 (cwallet) to 2026-06-10 (GRO Solutions), with fewer entries in 2022–2025 beyond those spaced around early-to-mid 2024 and 2025.
Are disclosed check sizes clustered in a narrow band, or spread widely?
Disclosed amounts span from $100K (Sufra AI on 2026-04-14) up to $500M (Al Ahli Bank of Qatar on 2025-03-25), but the distribution is highly uneven because most disclosed figures shown are in the hundreds of thousands to single-digit millions (e.g., $150K SHEQONOMI; $200K cwallet; $4M SkipCash; $2M KARTY). Several rows list “undisclosed,” so only a subset can be compared on dollar size.
Does any sector appear repeatedly across the Doha entries?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) appears in multiple rows: GRO Solutions (2026-06-10), EMMA Systems, Inc (Seed; 2025-10-05, with AI among its labels), DBU Group (2025-07-15), and Darkocean (2025-03-01). Other sectors appear once or twice in the displayed rows, such as Financial Services (SkipCash 2026-02-01; Al Ahli Bank of Qatar 2025-03-25; cwallet 2021-01-10).
How does stage naming shake out in the most recent set, especially among disclosed amounts?
Among rows with explicit stage labels, “Seed” and “Pre-Seed” are prominent: KARTY is Seed with $2M (2024-01-22), cwallet is Pre-Seed with $200K (2021-01-10), and Sufra AI is Pre-Seed with $100K (2026-04-14). “Series Unknown” is also frequent (e.g., GRO Solutions 2026-06-10; DBU Group 2025-07-15; Al Ahli Bank of Qatar 2025-03-25), which limits stage-based comparability.
Which entries look like they’d be worth follow-up because they break patterns in amount or disclosure?
The most obvious outlier is Al Ahli Bank of Qatar’s $500M disclosed round on 2025-03-25, far above the other disclosed amounts shown (next-highest $4M SkipCash on 2026-02-01). Separately, many recent entries are labeled “undisclosed,” including GRO Solutions (2026-06-10), EMMA Systems, Inc (2025-10-05), DBU Group (2025-07-15), PayLater (2025-05-21), Darkocean (2025-03-01), and Sponix (2022-08-23).
