BrazilOxford Business Group and Strategic Gears partner to advance Vision 2030 economic insights
In a move set to deepen economic insight and advisory services across Saudi Arabia, Oxford Business Group has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Strategic Gears to jointly produce high-impact research and advisory content supporting the Kingdom’s economic transformation under Vision 2030.
The two-year agreement formalizes a strategic collaboration aimed at fostering knowledge exchange, policy analysis and investment insight through joint publications, advisory projects and thought leadership initiatives.
Oxford Business Group (OBG) is a global research and advisory company with presence in over 30 countries. The firm provides intelligence to private and public sector clients, organises events and conferences, while its Advisory division provides counsel on macroeconomic and sector-level developments for investment opportunities and business decisions.
Strategic Gears meanwhile is a Saudi-origin management consulting firm with offices in the Middle East and Europe. The firm is one of the largest homegrown management consultancies in KSA, providing multidisciplinary services from strategy and public policy through to organizational excellence and digital.
Working with Strategic Gears, Oxford Business Group will be able to enrich its research-based insights and work in key areas of KSA’s Vision 2030 such as public sector reform, economic diversification, digital economy, regulatory, and investments.
“We are excited to formalize this partnership with Strategic Gears as we continue to deepen our research and advisory efforts in Saudi Arabia. Their strategic insight and local expertise are invaluable assets as we analyze and showcase the Kingdom’s transformation journey,” said Busra Karacadag, Country Director for Saudi Arabia at Oxford Business Group.
Commenting on the partnership, Ahmed Essam, Associate Partner at Strategic Gears, said: “This collaboration represents a major step in expanding access to actionable insights on Saudi Arabia’s economic transformation. Together, we aim to provide timely, grounded perspectives on ongoing reforms and investment opportunities.”
The first joint research piece under this partnership is expected later this year, focusing on key sectors aligned with Vision 2030.
