The MOU contemplates the parties entering into a strategic and advisory partnership agreement with Masary Capital.

Under the strategic partnership agreement, Spirit will leverage its relationship with Masary Capital to grow its presence in the Middle East and it will use Masary Capital as the advisory provider with respect to any potential growth within the region. Spirit will support Masary Capital’s Dubai Blockchain and Metaverse Strategy by providing assistance for important Web3 infrastructure projects, including public blockchain, scaling solutions and decentralized applications such as DeFi and GameFi. As part of the partnership, Spirit will establish an office in Dubai. This move will enable Spirit to work more closely with its strategic partner and better align its efforts towards realizing the vision of the Dubai Digital Asset Strategy, which seeks to leverage Blockchain technology for economic and social benefits.
The United Arab Emirates boasts the largest growth in the Blockchain industry and Dubai is a global hub for the digital assets and metaverse community, with a thriving ecosystem that supports innovation and growth in these fields. It is home to many of the largest crypto exchanges and a strong supporter of the Metaverse and Blockchain gaming. This is due to its favorable regulatory framework which has established a strong foundation for the digital economy. The Dubai government has taken a proactive approach to fostering the growth of the virtual asset industry, has implemented a licensing regime and established the Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA) to oversee the sector. This combination of entrepreneurial acumen, supportive policies and a vibrant business community has positioned Dubai as a leading player in the emerging global digital economy.
Khalil Abdulla, Chief Executive Officer of Masary Capital, expressed his excitement about Spirit Blockchain Capital being its Swiss-Canadian based public company partner commenting: “We are thrilled to work with Spirit Blockchain. We strive to work with companies that intend to contribute to the region’s immense ecosystem. We know that having a local partnership is the only way to create significant inroads and allocate capital appropriately.”
Spirit and Masary shall become the preeminent strategic partnership for Decentralized Finance, Web3 and asset management companies in MENA. “This relationship exemplifies strategic opportunities in the Digital Assets and Blockchain space and the commitment that Spirit Blockchain Capital is able to provide. We couldn’t get to where we want to go without Masary as a key local partner,” CEO Lewis Bateman CEO said. “Masary is the best partner in the region and the partnership will be the foundation of great opportunities and growth for both companies. This is only the beginning and soon we intend to list on the Nasdaq Dubai.”
