Backed by the Public Investment Fund (PIF), the firm has been active in Saudi Arabia since 2017 and was the first investment firm to launch a cross-border platform between the Kingdom and China. Headquartered in Riyadh, ewpartners focuses on building value across borders by establishing strategic partnerships with exceptional companies. The firm's expertise in shaping innovative policy frameworks supports governments in fostering economic transformation and diversification driven by innovation and technology. ewpartners is committed to investing in, supporting, and growing successful businesses across the Asia and MENA regions, with a focus on key industries such as digital infrastructure & solutions, advanced manufacturing & energy transition, and logistics & consumer enablement.

By establishing and maintaining the Kingdom’s position at the forefront of technological excellence, ewpartners has been a key contributor in bolstering the Saudi economy, helping ensure the future of the country is driven by its own people. The rebrand now symbolizes a broadening of its initial focus to include investments into the wider region. The 'east-west' wording incorporated into ewpartners symbolizes the transfer of knowledge and investment that the company facilitates between Asia and the Middle East. Speaking at an event held at ewpartners’ offices in the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD) to celebrate the new brand, ewpartners Founder and Managing Partner Jessica Wong said: 'We were the first cross–border investment platform to establish ourselves in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and our first-mover advantage has meant the last seven years have been a period of great success for us. Thanks to ongoing support from our investors, we have been able to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and opportunity between Asia and Saudi – the sharing between East and West – and make significant strides in fostering economic growth in the Kingdom through strategic investments across a range of industries.'
