Amna Razzaq

Award Winning Thought Leader

Amna Razzaq is the CEO of BrandBeat Global Group and Vice President at Stalliongates Investments, with companies headquartered in UAE creating global impact. As an American executive bridging the MEA region and United States, she has built partnerships in companies valued at over $500 million.

An operator first, Amna sits at the center of an eight-company group — marketing, capital, education, AI, venture building, sourcing, and a private members’ circle. Her signature skill is spotting the gap in a market, then using the group’s engine and her network to build the solution fast. Three ventures of her own are currently brewing in stealth, across edtech, fintech, and consumer wellness.

Her portfolio spans more than 30 startups across healthtech, fintech, edtech, and retail — proof that the same operating playbook travels across very different niches. BrandBeat’s 5X revenue growth within two years exemplifies the methodology. She has a long-standing place in investor and family-office communities, with an eye for overlooked opportunities across markets and a belief that lasting wealth is built on foundations, not trends. She is also the woman behind Gravitas, the group’s private practice for luxury personal branding and AI counsel, offered to a small circle by invitation.

Her strategic acumen is grounded in real-world experience building and scaling businesses across multiple continents. Rather than theoretical frameworks, Amna applies battle-tested insights from hands-on business transformation, understanding that what works in Silicon Valley won’t necessarily succeed in Riyadh, and what resonates with American investors may not appeal to Middle Eastern family offices.

As a committed mother to five, including a neurodistinct daughter, she embodies dedication in every aspect of her life. With a focus on empowering women and helping businesses scale globally, she founded “My Bright Idea” to foster a dynamic network of women entrepreneurs, encouraging collaboration and the creation of new partnerships.

As a board member in multiple startups and GP in venture funds, Amna’s focus on crafting vibrant business communities reflects her deep understanding that lasting success requires more than just capital or strategy—it demands the wisdom to build foundations that can evolve with changing markets and the intelligence to position ventures for sustainable global impact.

A sought-after speaker and thought leader, she is known for her direct, results-driven approach that cuts through industry complexities to deliver actionable business solutions that create lasting value across cultures and markets.
