For companies
For companies that want to grow faster than their market.
When growth stalls in your home market, the Gulf opens up new markets and new capital.
01
Scale-ups and start-ups with traction
Product in the market, paying customers, the next funding round is coming up.
02
High-growth mid-sized companies
Established in their home market, ready for a new market and the capital to enter it.
03
Serial Entrepreneurs
You have built and sold before. Your next company should grow internationally from day one, with capital and a base in the Gulf.
04
Carve-outs
You carve out a strong, innovative unit from your company and set it up anew in the Gulf: with its own structure and its own capital.
05
Companies realigning
Headwind at home, but a strong core. In the Gulf, you set a new course: with a new market, new partners or a carve-out.
“We open the door. You walk through.
We stay until it is signed.”

The book · NZZ Libro
Nach dem Boom.
What remains of the Dubai promise when the shine fades. Published in German.
Hardly any place is promoted so loudly and misunderstood so thoroughly as Dubai. The book offers an unvarnished inside view of where international capital meets the Middle East: why the relationship comes before the contract, why substance beats any structure that exists only on paper, and why discretion is not a quirk but a strategy. A guide for everyone who wants to read the Middle East correctly.
