Start a campaign in support of raising funds for Aseel's Seed round.

The funds from the round will be used to support the sustainability of Aseel as well as scale our solutions.

Q&A

Aseel is a community-driven company with a mission to create disruptive technology solutions to global challenges. The seed round provides a unique opportunity for early investors to own part of the Aseel community and have equity in the company at a discounted rate, as well as access exclusive offers as VIP members. By investing in Aseel, you'll have the chance to collaborate with like-minded people and the Aseel team to help drive the next generation of impact technology. Additionally, your investment will support Aseel's vision to become the most impactful large-scale global technology public company, which is our long term vision in Aseel. The seed funding will enable Aseel to scale its operations and execute its vision of creating amazing software solutions and expanding into new countries. Currently, Aseel is operational in Afghanistan and Turkey and plans to establish a presence all over the world as it continues to develop innovative solutions for global challenges. While the seed round has a timeline, interested investors will still be able to invest in the upcoming funding opportunities. Aseel plans to have other funding rounds in the future, but the seed round is a unique opportunity for early investors to be part of Aseel's growth story from the beginning. Investing in Aseel is not only an opportunity for potential financial returns but also a chance to contribute to a meaningful cause. As a company with a strong focus on humanitarian and social impact, Aseel's innovative solutions have the potential to transform industries and make a real difference in people's lives.
If you invest in Aseel as an Institutional Investor, you become a shareholder in the company while as a Non-Dilutive supporter, you have the opportunity to develop and execute your impact-focused project with Aseel leadership. As a shareholder, you have the potential to earn a return on your investment through dividends or by selling your shares at a higher price than you paid for them at later rounds or when Aseel becomes a public company. As an individual supporter , you will get the opportunity to become a VIP member of Aseel, including perks such as discounted rates and priority access to Aseel events but you do not receive equity or shares in the company.
Just remember that investing in a startup and early stage business carries significant risks, including illiquidity, lack of dividends, loss of your investment and dilution. The majority of startups fail or do not deliver shareholders a return on their investment. Liquidity, or the ability to cash in your investment, is limited as it often relies on the company being sold. Such investments in start up and early stage companies are long-term investments. Dividend payments are rare and the likelihood of an investor's percentage shareholding being diluted by future fundraising is high. We welcome everyone to invest, but please note that local regulations apply. Please check the applicable laws of your country. If you are unsure, we strongly recommend you to seek independent legal advice. Aseel shall not be liable for any loss caused to you as a result of your failure to comply with the applicable local laws. Investment in Aseel should be highly driven by the impact that Aseel makes as its primary return on investment.
Aseel's investment opportunities are open to various groups, including Aseel advisors, accredited investors, institutional investors, and potentially non-accredited investors. Additionally, non-dilutive support, foundations, and grants are also considered potential options for investment with Aseel. Individual supporters have the opportunity to support Aseel but they do not receive equity or shares in the company, unlike the other opportunities. Accredited investors typically have a higher net worth or income than non-accredited investors, which allows them to invest in private securities offerings. Institutional investors may include entities such as venture capital funds, pension funds, endowments, or hedge funds.

Aseel's market opportunity is in the global handmade market, which represents a massive over $500 billion market size and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.9% from 2020 to 2027.

With its Sell Good feature, artisans and small businesses in these economies can list and sell their products, and Aseel's commitment to sustainability and ethical production further differentiates it from competitors.

According to OCHA, there are currently 168 million people worldwide in need of humanitarian assistance and protection. Aseel Do Good works with local partners to provide essential supplies and rebuild infrastructure, and is well-positioned to take advantage of the growing demand for humanitarian aid and crisis response services. By leveraging its expertise in crisis response and network of local organizations, Aseel Do Good can provide critical assistance to communities in need, while also helping to promote sustainable development and long-term recovery.
