Class 5 Global is a venture fund investing in the next generation of emerging market entrepreneurs.
Since 2015, Zachary Finklestein and Joel Ayala—former startup operators turned venture capitalists—have been working together to better understand emerging markets that generate significant returns. This common vision got the duo to start San Francisco-based Class5 Ventures, an emerging market-focussed VC fund that actively invests in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. To date, it has invested in the likes of Dubai-based fintech startup Ziina (successfully exited), super app Careem, Latin America-focused cashback app Meliuz, and San Francisco-based fintech startup Finix.
