## About

Based in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, and founded in 2017, Edama Organic Solutions develops technologies to convert organic waste into resources for desert agriculture. The company was established by King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). The company uses composting technology to recycle organic waste and produce soil improvers that can increase food security in arid regions while reducing water consumption. In August 2020, Edama Organic Solutions raised USD 780,000 in seed funding from KAUST Innovation Ventures.
