Jun 17, 2026

GRO is on a mission to make financial literacy a right, not a privilege - an AI that teaches you, and works for you.

GRO, an AI-powered personal finance platform founded by Mariia Shevchenko with a team of Ukrainian and German co-founders, has chosen Doha as its headquarters. The company’s pre-seed investment was unveiled alongside the launch of GrowthX Capital, a new QAR 500 million venture fund established by Snoonu Founder & CEO Hamad Al-Hajri to support high-growth startups over the next five years.

The dual announcement was hosted at the Qatar Chamber represented by Board Member Mr. Mohammed bin Ahmed Al-Obaidly, in the presence of Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) CEO Mansoor Rashid Al-Khater; Ukraine’s Ambassador to the State of Qatar, H.E. Andrii Kuzmenko; and Dr. Olga Revina, Founder and Chairperson of the Qatar–Ukraine Business Forum (QUBF).
