Fund of Funds

Al Waha Fund of Funds

Investing in regional funds and startups through Al Waha Fund of Funds, supporting the Bahrain fintech and blockchain ecosystem as a gateway to the Gulf.

Blockchain Coinvestors / Fifth Era

Check: No Alison-specific check range is public. Blockchain Coinvestors has managed fund-of-funds and direct early-stage token strategies, but vehicle documents and historical target sizes are not personal check-size promises. Founders and managers should identify the relevant vehicle and confirm current allocation capacity.

Alison invests around technological change in financial services and the transition toward blockchain and Web3. Through Fifth Era and Blockchain Coinvestors she combines a fund-of-funds view of the crypto venture ecosystem with direct early-stage investing. Her executive and board career adds a governance lens: strategy, innovation, risk, financial controls and board effectiveness must mature alongside technology and growth.

Inception Capital

Check: Inception does not publish a David-specific check range on its live site. A 2026 interview described an $80M platform split between a $50M venture fund and $30M fund-of-funds, but vehicle size is not personal check size. Founders should ask directly about current round, ownership and reserve fit.

David runs a dual strategy: direct early-stage venture investments and backing emerging fund managers, sometimes through management-company or GP stakes. His edge is an East-West network connecting U.S. innovation and institutional capital with Asian adoption, builders and liquidity. He favors globally trained founders, emerging-market financial infrastructure and long-duration themes such as stablecoins, tokenization, automated finance and the intersection of AI and Web3.
