Ali Omar is a Helsinki-based angel investor and medical doctor who serves as a Partner at Founders’ Edge and previously co-founded and grew the healthcare services company Med Group to a €100 million valuation with seven exits. He invests primarily in pre-seed and seed-stage B2B SaaS and new technology startups, focusing on the Finnish market and occasionally other Nordic companies. Omar typically makes unattributed VC or angel checks averaging around €916,000 per round and often participates as a follow investor rather than a lead. His portfolio includes notable companies such as Themo (cleantech smart thermostats), QuietOn (noise-cancelling earplugs), Loupedeck (tactile video controllers), and GraphoGame (educational gaming). Omar emphasizes that founders must craft a clear, emotionally resonant narrative combining logic and story to secure funding, a point he highlighted in his 2019 EBAN Helsinki interview. He was named Finland’s Business Angel of the Year in 2019 and is known for actively mentoring portfolio founders with time and advice beyond capital.
