Global consulting firm Simon-Kucher announced further expansion in the Middle East with the opening of a new office in Riyadh.
This move reinforces the firm’s commitment to the region and its dedication to providing specialised services to local and international clients, the company said.
The company also announced the addition of three new Partners in the Riyadh office to further solidify its foothold in the Middle East.
The consulting firm has been present in the Middle East since 2012, with the establishment of its office in Dubai.
Now, with 46 offices spanning 31 countries across Europe, APAC, the Americas, Africa, and the Middle East, Simon-Kucher is poised to enhance its reach and capabilities within the region and globally, it said in a media release.
“Opening our new office in Riyadh marks a significant milestone in Simon-Kucher’s global expansion,” said Dr. Andreas von der Gathen, co-CEO of Simon-Kucher.
“Situated at the heart of the Middle East, Saudi Arabia is undergoing a transformative journey of diversification and modernisation through its Vision 2030 initiative.
“Simon-Kucher’s expertise, spanning pricing strategies, marketing, sales, and digitalisation, aligns seamlessly with the evolving landscape of the region,” he said.
Leading the expansion of the company in Saudi Arabia is Dr. Salim Al Gudhea, Managing Partner of the Riyadh office, who brings extensive experience in strategic advisory, consulting, and public policy.
The firm said its Riyadh office plans to expand its team exponentially in the next three years.
