  • Automated Analytics - providing clients with the most important KPIs and metrics needed to understand their market quickly, accurately, and affordabley with AI-powered automated analytics tools.  

A Unique Approach to Market Research  

While major international market research firms such as Nielsen and Ipsos dominate the global industry, their focus remains on larger enterprises in developed markets, leaving SMEs in the MENA region underserved. Local consulting firms, on the other hand, often provide market research that is costly, slow, and limited in scope. MENA Analytics bridges this gap by combining deep regional expertise with cutting-edge AI technology, making high-quality research more accessible and actionable. By leveraging automation and AI-driven analytics, MENA Analytics significantly reduces the cost and time required to deliver insights, giving businesses in the region a competitive edge.  

Strategic Growth & Regional Expansion  

MENA Analytics has already gained strong traction in Palestine and is now set to expand into Jordan and Saudi Arabia. With this investment, the company aims to enhance its AI-driven analytics capabilities and scale its operations to serve a broader market.  

“Our mission is to democratize access to high-quality data in the MENA region, enabling businesses to make smarter, evidence-based decisions,” said Yousef Srouji, Co-Founder and CEO of MENA Analytics. “With Ibtikar Fund’s backing, we are well-positioned to expand our regional footprint and bring cutting-edge data solutions to more businesses.”
