24 November, CAIRO. Hekouky, the Legaltech platform that incorporates companies

and registers trademarks for entrepreneurs and business owners, announces that it has

raised an undisclosed amount in a pre-seed funding round by Nama Ventures.

Getting legal transactions sorted as a business person can be complex, costly and

waste a lot of time. Hekouky fixes that by giving a one stop shop and easy to use

platform that will make the process hassle free.

Hekouky was founded by three co-founders with diverse backgrounds and experiences:

Hala Riad, Mayy Abdelbary and Fatima Khalil. Mayy Abdelbary is the former CTO of

Paynas, with 15 years of experience, 9 of which were in legal software development she

has decided to take the legal space by a storm. Hala Riad is a lawyer with experience in

arbitration and corporate law. Fatima Khalil is an accountant and the founder of three

companies previously.

What unites these women, is a passion, a dedication and a vision: Making the law

Accessible to All. Making legal transactions easier, quicker and traceable for

entrepreneurs.

“Our mission is to make entrepreneurs feel safe to follow their dreams, in Egypt and in

the MENA region. Entrepreneurship is a test of wills, one that we will make easier by

taking the legal burden off your shoulders. Said Hala Riad, Hekouky Co-founder.

“We firmly believe that the RegTech space in MENA is ripe for disruption.” Said

Mohammed Alzubi, Managing Partner at Nama Ventures. “There are tremendous

inefficacies the legal space that technology can help bridge. What we saw in Hala,

Mayy, and Fatima is a team that has a very good command on what it takes to build a

great RegTech startup. “
