Ethical Business: An Overview of Kuwait Based Venture Capital Firm Faith Capital Holding by Mohammed Jaffar
Interview with Mohammed Jaffar, Deputy Chairman and CEO of Faith Capital Holding (FCH)
You come from a long line of entrepreneurs - your great grandfather, your grandfather, your father. Did this entrepreneurial spirit inspire you to start Faith Capital Holding (FCH)?
Absolutely. That is what inspired me as well. I actually did not join my family business; I started my own thing. I come from a very large, Middle Eastern family business. But I am not involved in that company at all. I decided to venture on my own and do something where I can lead instead of following. There is a gap in tech companies and wealth creation. That is what made me decide to venture into the space. I am only investing in tech and I have been doing so since 2010. Of course, this also comes with a lot of risks. With patience comes a high risk of failure as well. But again, entrepreneurs are the ones that are willing to take that kind of risk.
