The Relationship
In 2021, AG met up with Saqib in Dubai to connect and ended up leaving with a deep interest in Saqib’s investing ethos and his evaluation process. GTM Capital’s fund would give AG early AI and tech exposure while reducing the risk of investing in standalone projects, in a sector that was now defining itself. Through well-timed entries in projects like Factory, Saqib achieved excellent performance with his first fund, which led to the inception of a second GTM Capital fund in 2023.
Saqib runs GTM Capital out of Miami as its founder and managing director, focusing on enterprise software companies that already have paying customers, usually at the seed and Series A stages. Most of the portfolio sits in cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure and developer tools, and alongside Factory, it has backed names such as WisdomAI, which raised $50 million last November with Kleiner Perkins and Coatue, and DataBahn, which closed $40 million in July.
