Ehsan's Market Analysis

Riyadh is an underrated market for mobility technology. While most attention goes to Silicon Valley, Riyadh's 500+ startups are building companies adapted to local market dynamics. The $80K average salary creates interesting unit economics for bootstrapped and capital-efficient companies. My recommendation: start with a niche, own it, then expand.
