Multiply is one of our most innovative, tech-driven portfolio companies and is well placed to capitalize on the rapid growth of the digital economy, both in the region and globally.

"

Samia Bouazza, CEO and Board Member of Multiply Group said: "Listing on the ADX elevates the profile of Multiply Group, not only among regional and international investors, but also in the global technology ecosystem. After a strong deal-making phase, we are ready to take the next big leap as we continue to grow our portfolio organically and inorganically. With the strong growth momentum we are currently witnessing, we are set to continue investing in tech-driven companies that complement our expanding ecosystem and be at the forefront of the next phase of digital transformation".
