PE in Europe/US from Middle East BB/EB

Hi All

Currently working in an EB/BB in Dubai and was wondering if you saw or heard of someone making the switch from Dubai to PE in Europe/US directly (on GP side).

For context there is a lack of attractive PE opportunities in the Middle East and is something I’m really interested about

Would be curious to know what the process was like (e.g if it first required making the switch to Europe/US within IB, MBA etc.)

Thank you!
