Investment companies Hodler Investments and Gewan Holding, based in the UAE, have announced the launch of the Digital Energy Infrastructure (DEI) fund with a capital of $500 million.
The DEI fund plans to invest in a variety of infrastructure projects that will contribute to the growth of the digital economy. This will include supporting innovative startups working on advanced technologies such as energy production, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and decentralized physical infrastructure (DePIN).
The creation of the DEI fund reflects the UAE’s strategy to strengthen its position as a leading technology hub in the region by attracting international investments and developing the local startup ecosystem. The initiative is expected not only to accelerate the adoption of cutting-edge technologies but also to create new jobs, contributing to economic growth and stability in the country.
Additionally, the fund will work closely with public and private partners to develop new business models and integrate digital solutions into existing industries such as energy, transportation, and construction.
