VUZ

VUZ (formerly 360VUZ) is an immersive video platform that lets users watch and live-stream 360-degree VR video of sports, concerts, entertainment and events, viewable with or without a VR headset. The company holds exclusive immersive-video rights for properties including LaLiga, the PFL and Serie A, and offers a free tier alongside a paid VIP subscription with additional content and perks. VUZ was founded in 2017 by Jordanian entrepreneur Khaled Zaatarah, originally headquartered in Dubai, UAE (Al Sufouh). The company has since expanded regionally, with offices across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, Egypt and the US, and its own site now lists Riyadh, Saudi Arabia as its headquarters, reflecting Saudi Arabia's regional-headquarters relocation push. VUZ has raised a cumulative $39.2 million, including a $12 million pre-Series C round in 2025 backed by the International Finance Corporation (IFC, part of the World Bank Group). The app is available on iOS and Android and supports several languages including English, Arabic, Spanish, French and Portuguese.
