Who We Are?
Blue Ray Ventures (BRV) is a holding company that has been passionate about players in the financial transactions domain since its inception in 2000. Over time, we have specialized in this field as it has evolved and expanded into the digital space.

We then set our sights for aquisitions in high-potential and high growth markets in the Middle East with a focus on MEA reigon. We started our journey by aquiring an Egyptian vetran player - National Technology Group (NTG). NTG is a rising corporation that shares our passion for digital payments, making them an ideal partner for us and a gateway to Africa.
Together, we aim to bring innovative payment solutions to the MEA region.
