In a significant move, Tumodo, a pioneering business travel platform established in 2023, has successfully raised $35 million in a pre-seed funding round. The funding was co-led by angel investors focused on the MENA region. The infusion of capital is poised to propel Tumodo’s growth in the UAE market, drive further product development, and open up new partnership opportunities across the MENA market. By 2026, Tumodo aims to extend its platform to an additional 25 countries globally.
