Press release:

Two Iraqi startups operating in digital commerce and agricultural technology have secured separate six-figure investments from Iraqi investors and strategic partners, highlighting growing investor confidence in Iraq’s emerging startup ecosystem and the increasing flow of private capital into technology-enabled businesses.

The transactions were announced by Mabiati and Al Jabal Agriculture, two startups supported through Orange Corners Baghdad and the Orange Corners Innovation Fund (OCIF) Iraq. The investments will support each company's expansion plans while accelerating the adoption of digital solutions across key sectors of the Iraqi economy.

Mabiati, a digital commerce platform founded by Iraqi entrepreneur Mohammed Al Sultan, secured a six-figure investment to accelerate the growth of Iraq’s e-commerce ecosystem. The company enables individuals and entrepreneurs to launch and manage online stores without upfront capital requirements while connecting merchants, suppliers, logistics providers, and customers through a single integrated platform.

Since its launch, Mabiati has served more than 20,000 customers and recorded average growth of approximately 40%. The company has already begun deploying the new funding to restructure existing obligations, strengthen operational sustainability, expand its workforce, launch the second generation of its platform, upgrade its server infrastructure, implement advanced automation systems, establish an in-house content production studio, and expand its marketing partnerships.

Meanwhile, Al Jabal Agriculture secured a separate six-figure investment to expand its smart farming operations across Iraq. Founded in late 2022 by remote sensing specialist Mohammed Nabeel Al-Ruwaishdi, the company uses satellite monitoring, geographic information systems (GIS), artificial intelligence, and advanced agricultural analytics to improve farm productivity and decision-making.

The company currently manages and monitors thousands of dunams across Iraq through technology-enabled agricultural systems and aims to exceed 100,000 dunams under management over the next year. According to the company, its solutions have helped several clients increase productivity by more than 25% while reducing unnecessary agricultural spending and resource waste valued at more than IQD 600 million.

The newly secured funding will enable Al Jabal Agriculture to strengthen its technical infrastructure, develop more advanced AI-powered agricultural systems, and expand operations into additional farming regions throughout Iraq.

Both startups participated in Orange Corners Baghdad and are currently among the leading ventures supported through the Orange Corners Innovation Fund Iraq, a growth and investment readiness programme implemented by Iraq Venture Partners (IVP).

The investments represent another milestone for Iraq’s startup ecosystem, demonstrating the increasing ability of local founders to attract private investment and build scalable technology solutions that address critical market challenges. They also reflect growing investor interest in sectors beyond traditional technology, including agriculture, commerce, logistics, and digital infrastructure.

As Iraq’s entrepreneurial ecosystem continues to mature, transactions such as these signal a broader shift toward venture-backed innovation and the emergence of a new generation of startups capable of driving economic growth and digital transformation across the country.
