Is Beam Ventures structured as a single family office or does it operate more like a venture firm?
It operates strictly as a venture capital firm, not a family office. The firm is regulated by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of the Abu Dhabi Global Market and manages external capital through a fund structure.
