Established in 2014, Catalyst is a technology company focused on designing, developing, and delivering innovative solutions that empower the region—and the world—to reach new levels of technological advancement. The name “Catalyst” reflects its mission: to actively contribute through products, services, and investments that advance and shape the future of the technology sector in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
Catalyst operates with two core approaches: acting as leaders, investors, and partners in tech start-ups and entrepreneurial ventures; and as creators and developers of original technology solutions. Every project is rigorously evaluated by our expert team to ensure alignment with our strategic goals.
Our interests span far beyond products, reaching into sectors such as computer science, research, and analytics. Catalyst engages across a wide spectrum of technology-driven areas including software engineering, web and mobile development, artificial intelligence, data mining, animation, geo-location, game development, e-commerce, content and video production, filming, arts and design, and even technology applications in food and hospitality.
To deliver excellence in these diverse fields, Catalyst has formed joint ventures and strategic partnerships with both local and international organizations. These collaborations include alliances with visionary entities such as Sharaf Mahfouz Holding and others committed to shaping the region’s future through innovation.
Catalyst’s vision is to establish a high-tech innovation hub in Saudi Arabia—a community similar to Silicon Valley or Edison Park—where world-class corporations and start-ups can thrive. From this home base, Catalyst aims to influence global technology from a distinctly local and regional perspective.
For Catalyst, even the sky is not the limit—it’s just the beginning.
