Services
From field data to board-ready intelligence
Six core practices, designed and fielded by our own research teams across the GCC.
Market research
Consumer studies, B2B interviews and mystery shopping, designed and fielded by our own teams. We recruit to your exact audience, run the fieldwork in local dialect, and quality-control every interview before it reaches your dataset.
Feasibility studies
Demand sizing, revenue modelling and market-entry cases built on primary Gulf data. We pressure-test the assumptions behind a new site, concept or investment so the numbers hold up in front of your board and your lenders.
Business intelligence platforms
Our Umbrella subscription platform delivers continuously updated market indicators for the sectors and markets you track. Instead of one-off reports, your teams get a living source of truth they can query whenever a decision comes up.
Data analytics & dashboards
We clean, validate and structure raw data, then turn it into live dashboards your teams actually use. From data cleaning and research applications to bespoke visualisation, the goal is the same — analysis you can act on, not slides you file away.
Economic concentration reports
Regulator-ready market concentration analysis for merger filings and competition reviews. We map market shares, define the relevant market and document the methodology so the report stands up to scrutiny from authorities across the GCC.
Consultancy & advisory
Advisory grounded in fifteen years of Gulf fieldwork, not imported playbooks. We sit alongside your leadership to translate evidence into a defensible strategy — pricing, expansion, positioning or portfolio decisions backed by data we collected ourselves.
