Advisory · Cairo · Across the GCC
You don’t need a consultant. You need an answer.
For growth-stage founders and mid-cap boards across the Gulf. Senior-only partners. Bilingual delivery. Fixed scope, fixed fee. From Cairo, across the GCC.
Who we work with
Senior partners, institutional discipline, bilingual delivery — sized for a founder’s runway and a board’s calendar.
Seed – Series C · founder-led
Companies raising institutional capital, entering the Gulf, or preparing for the diligence that follows a term sheet.
Typically USD 20m–250m revenue · founder- and family-owned
Groups professionalizing, expanding into new markets and formats, or preparing for a transaction.
One continuum. Five entry points.
From first round to first exit — take one service or the whole journey.
“The plan lives in the founder’s head.”
Where is this business actually going — and can you prove it? An investable plan, not a document that sits in a drawer.
An investable plan an investor, a bank or a board can act on.
“The model breaks at the investor’s first hard question.”
What do the numbers say when someone stresses them? Decision-grade models, built from the start to be challenged.
Decision-grade models — every assumption visible, every number defensible in the room.
“The round is stalling — and the bank still won’t say yes.”
The capital exists. So why is it taking this long to reach you? We take the file from “under review” to signed, drawn or funded.
A file that closes — from questions raised to capital committed.
“The Gulf is the next market. Nobody can size it.”
How fast can you be in the Gulf — safely? An entry plan with a number attached to every option.
Entry with a number — enter with conviction, or walk away early and cheaply.
“Revenue is growing. Cash and margin aren’t.”
The revenue is there. So where did the margin go? Fix the engine before the business needs a rescue.
Fix the engine — cash released, structure fixed, accountability restored.
How we work
Sized for a founder’s runway and a board’s calendar.
We agree the question, gather the data and tell you early if the answer is uncomfortable.
Models, plans and files built by partners — with you in the room, not behind a curtain.
We stress our own work as a credit committee or investor would, then fix what breaks.
We present to your board, bank or investor — and stay on the line until it closes.
NDAs first. Data-room discipline. Nothing leaves the file.
We are paid to be right, not to place a product.
Models, files and plans hand over unlocked and documented.
