Saudi-based investment firm Pinnacle has initiated a venture capital fund aimed at nurturing growth-stage companies and secondary investments within the Kingdom. This fund will not only provide capital for primary funding rounds but also facilitate secondary transactions, ultimately aiming to enhance liquidity within Saudi Arabia's venture ecosystem.
