mitgo launches mena publisher investments program

Global tech company Mitgo has launched a new Publisher Investments Program, an alternative financing service that will provide investment opportunities for projects in the MENA market. Initial capital for the fund is $20 million, with the program’s scope expanding as applications are received.

Mitgo’s service will be aimed primarily at the FinTech, smart shopping, generative AI, MarTech, and HRTech sectors. The program will help publishers solve financing gaps and cash flow issues that stand in the way of expansion.

Applicants for funding must earn (or plan to earn) more than 50% of their revenue from cost-per-lead, cost-per-click, cost-per-sale, and other performance-based methods. They also need to be working with Mitgo businesses Admitad and Takeads or with another affiliate network. Companies that do not meet these criteria may still be eligible for funding if they can demonstrate a readiness to earn using the listed advertising models.

Successful candidates will be eligible for $50,000 to $500,000 in funds. In addition, companies will also gain access to the complete Mitgo ecosystem, along with a dedicated strategic manager.

The MENA region will be a key focus for the Publisher Investment scheme, with Mitgo expecting at least 10% of all investments to be made in local projects.

“Their success is our success, which is why we’ll not only provide financial support but also allocate time and resources into mentoring and coaching, as well as giving access to an extensive network of digital advertising contacts,” said Alexander Bachmann, Mitgo CEO & Founder.

Mitgo has a successful history in investing, having already closed over 30 deals, including FairSavings ($500K+) and LetyShops ($3M+).

Since the announcement of its Publisher Investments program in June, Mitgo has received 100+ applications and continues actively inviting MENA publishers to submit proposals.

A Three-Clinic Network Bets Dubai Is Ready For Longevity Medicine

Longevium has enlisted nearly 100 clinicians and created an AI platform in a bid to sell biological-age tracking as a medicine, not a wellness service.

a three-clinic network bets dubai is ready for longevity medicine

Dubai has been busily creating the scaffolding for a longevity industry, including a dedicated regulatory authority and a health market deep enough to sustain it. Now the clinics are arriving.

Longevium, a longevity clinic network, has opened three locations across the city: a flagship at Triple Seven Mall on Jumeirah 3, and branches in Jumeirah Lake Towers and Jumeirah Village Circle. Together they house a multidisciplinary team of nearly 100 physicians and specialists offering what the company bills as “a measurable medical system for longevity”.

The pitch is that longevity medicine should look less like a wellness menu and more like continuous clinical care. Each patient’s biological age assessment, laboratory results, body composition, cardiovascular risk factors, metabolic markers, and lifestyle data feed into a single profile, with a proprietary AI platform helping physicians track progress and adjust protocols against the patient’s own biomarkers.

“Healthy aging must be approached clinically through diagnostics, biomarkers, physician supervision, longitudinal tracking, and protocols tailored to the individual,” said Dr. Ksenia Butova, Longevium’s founder and CEO. “Our goal is to help patients understand their health trajectory before disease develops, and then actively change that trajectory”.

The treatment list spans peptide-based protocols, exosome therapies, stem cell approaches, GLP-1 metabolic optimization, hormone balance programs, cardiovascular prevention, and regenerative aesthetics — a model built for the entrepreneurs, executives, and international patients the clinic says want measurable results rather than generic wellness. A signature offering, Longevity Day, compresses biomarker testing, ultrasound and vascular imaging, specialist consultations, IV therapy, and a personalized optimization roadmap into a single three-hour visit.

“Here, longevity, biotechnology, AI, prevention, and regenerative medicine are converging into a single ecosystem,” said Butova. “This is why Longevium was built in Dubai, and why we believe the UAE can become a global reference point for longevity medicine”.

The emirate established the Dubai Longevity Authority in 2026 to oversee its longevity, wellness, and advanced health sectors, and the Dubai Health Authority reported insured beneficiaries exceeding 4.9 million in 2025, up around 6.5%, with insurance claims reaching approximately 49.6 million, up around 13.5%.
