The Potcast Productions (TPP), Egypt’s leading podcast production startup, proudly announces the successful closure of its pre-seed funding round, secured with strategic investments from Innovative Media Productions (IMP) and esteemed investor Ahmed Tarek Khalil. This pivotal funding follows the initial round announced last April, marking a significant milestone in TPP’s mission to revolutionize the podcasting landscape in the MENA region.
This new investment highlights the strong confidence and enthusiasm prominent investors have in TPP’s vision and innovative approach to content creation. IMP, the media powerhouse behind the hit show Shark Tank Egypt, and Ahmed Tarek Khalil, a distinguished figure in the startup ecosystem, provide not only financial backing but also invaluable industry expertise and strategic guidance to TPP.

Their support validates our mission to transform podcasting in the region and propels us forward as we continue to innovate and expand our reach.”
The funds will be strategically deployed to enhance TPP’s content production capabilities, scale its marketing efforts, and accelerate the development of new, high-quality podcast series that cater to a diverse and growing audience. This round of investment will also support TPP’s plans to produce high-quality audio experiences both digitally and offline, further solidifying its position as a leader in audio-first content production.
Ahmed Tarek Khalil commented on the investment: “I am excited to support TPP in its quest to dominate the podcasting space in the MENA region and beyond. Their creative vision and commitment to quality make them a standout player in the industry, and I am confident in their potential to achieve remarkable growth.”
Ahmed Luxor, CEO and Co-founder of IMP, added: “We believe in TPP’s innovative approach and their ability to connect and engage with audiences through compelling storytelling. Our investment is a strategic move to back a company that we see as a pivotal force in the evolving media landscape.”
Building on the momentum from the previous funding announcement, this new round of investment not only closes TPP’s pre-seed round on a high note but also sets the stage for future growth and success.
