Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.<\/strong> It\u2019s a relatively slow Monday morning, with the exception of Dar Al Balad looking to test the waters and market appetite with its small-cap IPO. The company\u2019s books are now opening, defying the prevailing logic that the 2Q window for new listings in regional markets is effectively closed. <\/p>\n

Meet EnterpriseAM MENA+, our new flagship newsletter<\/strong> covering the flows of capital, people, and ideas across the Middle East \u2014 and beyond it.<\/p>\n

MENA+ covers AI and tech \u2014 and geopolitics, the war for talent<\/strong>, which BSD is on top (and who's gunning for them), the changing energy economy, new corridors to India and China, and much, much more.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s with the \u201c+\u201d in MENA+? <\/strong>We think one of the most powerful stories in the region is the *export* of ideas and capital not just to neighboring regions (Asia, the Stans) but to international financial centers. MENA countries are jockeying for position in the new global economy now taking shape, and we\u2019re going to shape that conversation.<\/p>\n

<\/a> M&A WATCH \u2014<\/strong> Paramount-Skydance takeover of Warner Bros. moves forward:<\/strong> Warner Bros. Discovery shareholders greenlit the company\u2019s USD 110 bn merger with Paramount-Skydance last week, according to a statement<\/a>. The shareholder approval did not extend to the executive pay structures that could see Warner Bros. CEO David Zaslav land USD 887 mn when the agreement closes. <\/p>\n

IN CONTEXT- <\/strong>The merger was reportedly<\/a> backed by some USD 24 bn in commitments from the Public Investment Fund and other GCC sovereign wealth funds that are anchoring the capital-intensive takeover. However, the pen hasn\u2019t been put to paper yet.<\/p>\n

\n

Data point<\/p>\n

<\/a> US<\/strong>D 106 bn \u2014<\/strong> that\u2019s the value of Gulf-backed transactions across North <\/strong>America and Europe currently in limbo <\/strong>since the war forced investors in the region to revisit their strategies, according to Pitchbook data cited by the Financial Times<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Rising defense spending and energy disruption risks are pushing governments to prioritize \u201cdomestic investment, defense industrial capacity, and food security<\/strong>\u201d over assets like venture capital or entertainment, says Ana Nacvalovaite, SWFs specialist at Oxford University\u2019s Kellogg College. <\/p>\n

Still, the mega-M&A is not dead: <\/strong>High-profile transactions like the USD 110 bn Paramount-Skydance<\/a> and the USD 55 bn Electronic Arts<\/a> takeovers reportedly remain on track. <\/p>\n

IN CONTEXT- <\/strong>Six of the world\u2019s 10 heftiest SWFs are based in our part of the world, controlling nearly USD 5 tn in assets. Even marginal shifts in their allocation can filter through to global M&A pipelines that depend on their anchor investments.<\/p>\n

ALSO- Riyadh will <\/strong>host<\/a><\/strong> WrestleMania 43 in 2027 as part of the Riyadh Season<\/strong>, marking the first time WWE\u2019s biggest show will be held outside North America. The event will be organized in collaboration with the General Entertainment Authority.<\/p>\n

The big story abroad <\/p>\n

While the <\/strong>latest developments<\/a><\/strong> from yesterday\u2019s shooting at the White House <\/strong>correspondents\u2019 dinner are dominating the front pages<\/strong>, a few other stories have caught our attention: <\/p>\n

Our daily update on ceasefire negotiations: <\/strong>After the latest round of discussions between the US and Iran fell through, US President Donald Trump appears to have left the ball in Tehran\u2019s court, saying<\/a> Iran can reach out by phone to continue negotiations.<\/p>\n

And in markets: <\/strong>Bullish sentiment over AI appears to have pushed equities to record highs<\/a>. Since the outbreak of the regional war, 82 stocks, most of which are tied to the AI boom, have posted gains above 10%, which the Wall Street Journal attributed to investor confidence in data-center construction and infrastructure providers like Nvidia. <\/p>\n

And speaking of AI: <\/strong>According to new reports, AI may end up costing businesses more than human labor, with computing costs exceeding<\/a> salaries in some cases. Firms like Uber are seeing AI costs skyrocket, with some estimates placing global IT spending at USD 6.3 tn in 2026 \u2014 a 13% y-o-y jump.<\/p>\n

In the (shrinking?) world of human achievement<\/strong>, Kenyan athlete Sabastian Sawe made<\/a>history<\/a> yesterday as the first runner to ever finish a competitive marathon in under two hours. <\/p>\n
