Christine N.

Professional background

I help organizations and founders turn their visions into scalable, fundable, and impact-driven realities by connecting people, ideas, and resources across sectors to build what doesn’t yet exist. Whether it’s navigating VC fundraising, structuring grants, building strategic partnerships, or designing programs that matter—I bring insight, execution, and strategy to the table, thriving at the intersection of structure and purpose, with deep respect for community, culture, and context.

I am committed to empowering organizations and individuals to create measurable, sustainable change. With over 8 years of cross-sector experience in early-stage venture capital, startup acceleration, and nonprofit development, I bring a unique lens that bridges business growth with social innovation. Currently, I connect founders to capital through my role as a Deal Flow Builder for 15+ VC funds, sourcing and supporting early-stage startups across MENA and global markets. My expertise lies in business development, grant management, proposal writing, cross-border program execution, and operational strategy. I’ve designed and scaled programs that help mission-driven ventures achieve investment readiness, forge strategic partnerships, and maximize their impact.

I’m especially passionate about ecosystem building and continue to
mentor early-stage founders, advise on fundraising strategies, and
contribute to ecosystem development initiatives.
