“Fintech media founder connecting ecosystems across MENA, Pakistan and beyond”
Qasim Qazi is a Riyadh-based founder and media entrepreneur who built Fintech News Media, one of the Middle East's largest fintech-focused media ecosystems, spanning 10 regional platforms across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar, Pakistan, Europe, USA and Hong Kong. With a fast-growing community of 115,000+ fintech professionals, his network connects founders, investors, regulators, and banks across some of the world's most dynamic emerging markets. As an Acumen Fellow and Swedish Institute Fellow, he brings a globally informed perspective to the regional fintech conversation.
His mission goes well beyond publishing news - he helps fintech companies gain strategic visibility, build cross-border partnerships, and access ecosystems that were previously fragmented and hard to navigate. Through press releases, thought leadership, founder interviews and ecosystem intelligence, he positions companies as category leaders across MENA and beyond. Now evolving Fintech News Media into a full fintech intelligence platform powered by AI agents, real-time dashboards and community tools, Qasim is building the infrastructure for how the next generation of fintech ecosystems stay connected, informed and ahead of the curve.
