About

NewTec Development Capital

NewTec was founded in 2001 as a technical advisory firm specializing in industrial processing technology. Over two decades, we have evolved into a unique platform that combines deep engineering expertise with strategic co-investment capabilities, serving partners across the Middle East, Africa, and Mediterranean region.

Our journey began with providing specialized technical advisory services for processing facilities. Through successfully delivering dozens of mid to large-scale projects, we developed strong relationships with operators and a deep understanding of what drives operational excellence. This foundation naturally led to co-investment opportunities, where we could apply our technical insights to create lasting value alongside our partners.

Our portfolio spans diverse processing applications, from specialized animal feed facilities in the UAE to advanced food processing operations including oat milling in Saudi Arabia and rice processing in Pakistan. We've also guided the development of innovative projects in sustainable materials, including biomass processing in South Africa and recycling facilities in Qatar.

What sets us apart is our ability to evaluate opportunities through both technical and financial lenses. Our engineering heritage allows us to assess not just the theoretical potential of a project, but its practical feasibility, optimal scale, and operational requirements. This technical foundation, combined with our extensive regional network developed over 45 years, enables us to identify reliable partners and structure investments that align incentives for long-term success.
