Yazeed Al-Shamsi

Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer

A Saudi entrepreneur, co-founder and chief executive of Ejari. He founded the company in 2022 with three university classmates, Fahad Albedah, Mohammed Alkhelewy and Khalid Almunif, launching the platform from Riyadh the following year. Ejari works at the intersection of property technology and financial technology, offering a rent-now-pay-later solution for the Kingdom's residential rental market: it settles the annual lease with the landlord on the tenant's behalf, and the tenant repays in monthly instalments. Its service has expanded to 17 Saudi cities, and the company raised a 14.65 million dollar seed round in a mix of debt and equity in October 2024. Forbes Middle East listed him and his co-founders among its 30 Under 30 for 2025.
