01 / THE GLOCAL WAY

A world of ideas. A way forward.

Ambition doesn’t come in one size. Neither should consulting.

You might be turning a skill into a business. Finding the next market for a product. Or making a major investment. Wherever you are, we start with the real question: what will move you forward?

Mission

Guide investors through challenges confidently.

Vision

Help investors grow their ideas into global brands.

Method

Localise international standards to the realities of each client.

The Glocal advantage: a team of entrepreneurs with our own investor experience. We understand the passion behind your project because we’ve built our own.

THE ENTREPRENEUR’S JOURNEY

From first idea to investor.

One minute, six stages. Watch how a founder’s role changes as the business grows, from a laptop at the kitchen table to backing the next big idea.

SMALL BEGINNINGS. BIGGER WORLDS.

Every ambition has a next chapter.

Three journeys. Nine chapters. See how the right next step can connect an idea to something bigger.

Illustrative journeys, not client case studies.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE. CONNECTED THINKING.

Your business doesn’t grow in isolation.

Customers, makers, partners and markets. Growth happens when the right connections start working together.

Your ambition. A team in your corner.

01

Choose your goal.

Pick a stage, a package or a single service—or take the Glocal Compass and let us recommend one.

Share your brief.

A short questionnaire and a 30-minute interview. Upload what you have; we agree the scope before work starts.

03

Receive the work. Keep going.

Get clear deliverables, ask questions, request agreed revisions—then take the next step when you’re ready.

How involved should we be?

Do it with me

We prepare the work and help coordinate suppliers, set-up and launch alongside you.

06 / MEMBERSHIP & CREDITS

Consulting you can subscribe to.

Tier 1 and Tier 2 services are available on their own or through a membership. Each plan combines services you choose with a credit balance for consultations and extras.

Prices in USD.
100 credits = 1 hourOne credit is worth $1. Every service has a fixed credit price.
90 daysUnused monthly credits roll over for 90 days
6 monthsCredit bundles bought on their own stay valid for six months
Free interviewSubscribers get a free introductory interview during our first six months
TIER 3 PARTNERSHIP

By assessment and contract.

Larger companies and investors have very different needs. Tier 3 starts with a tailored needs assessment and continues under a direct company contract with agreed scope, milestones and responsibilities—never a card checkout.

Request a Tier 3 assessment ↗

Have a discount code from our Instagram or Patreon? Add it to your brief. Fixed prices cover each service’s typical scope; if a request is much larger than that (for example, a far longer document than the service is designed for), we’ll agree the scope and price with you before starting. Local-currency figures are approximate.

07 / INSIGHTS

Talks, writing and news.

Practical ideas for founders and investors across the region, plus announcements from our teams.

A FEW THINGS, MADE SIMPLE

Good questions. Straight answers.

Do I need a business plan to get started?

No. Start with what you have—even if that is just an idea and a few questions. Tier 1 exists to turn an idea into clear next steps.

How do I pay?

For now, we confirm your brief and scope, then send an invoice. Online card checkout will arrive with the client dashboard.

How do credits work?

100 credits equal one consultant hour, so one credit is worth $1. Each service has a fixed credit price. Membership credits roll over for 90 days; credit bundles bought on their own are valid for six months.

Can I buy a single service without subscribing?

Yes. Any Tier 1 or Tier 2 service can be bought on its own. Membership simply makes regular support easier and better value.

Why isn’t Tier 3 available online?

Tier 3 is our highest level of service. Larger companies’ needs differ greatly, so we start with a tailored needs assessment and agree a direct contract.

Where do you work?

We have in-country teams in the UAE, Jordan, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and we work with clients internationally. Most work can be delivered remotely.

Can we work together online?

Yes. Briefs, interviews, document reviews and most deliverables are handled remotely, with email and WhatsApp available. Any on-site work is agreed in the scope.

Do you work in Arabic and English?

Yes. The website follows your browser’s language and you can switch at any time. Our team works across several languages, and we offer English and Arabic transcription and translation as a service.

Is this an AI consulting agent?

Glocal is a consulting service with people responsible for your engagement. We also help businesses adopt AI and automation. The Glocal Compass on this website is a guided recommendation tool, not an AI adviser.

Do you work with larger businesses and investors?

Yes. Expansion, operational transformation, property investment, business acquisitions and development or JV mandates are handled through Tier 3. Use the brief to tell us about your mandate.
