Founded in late 2015 by Ritesh Tilani and Alper Celen, Enhance employs a holding company model to overcome challenges experienced by regional startups. Since its launch, Enhance has built marketing, technical, and operational capabilities in its offices in Dubai, Riyadh, Jeddah and Cairo, and plans to use these capabilities beyond its current portfolio in subsequent vertical marketplaces.
Enhance currently wholly owns Dubai-based joi (joigifts.com), the region’s leading online gifting platform and will launch other marketplaces in 2018.
