Structured innovation program that engaged MAF’s business units with 14 selected startups out of 196 applications – driving digital transformation and internal innovation pipelines.
AstroLabs was Wa'ed's suggestion as the go-to-market entry partner in KSA. The team at AstroLabs had in-depth knowledge about the Kingdom's procedures and the newly issued laws and enabled a very efficient and effective expansion for us.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
We were attracted by the team’s turnkey solution and how helpful they were. The team has been nothing short of wonderful. Not only were they exceptionally professional, responsive and thorough, but they consistently went above and beyond to help us, particularly during COVID. I am so impressed.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
AstroLabs is proactive and highly responsive, they drive tasks and take ownership over the process. As a Saudi market entry partner, they facilitated and supported our company towards achieving our goals of establishing our entity in KSA and beyond.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
We had a unique experience with AstroLabs, we engaged with them a long time ago because Saudi has always been our target market, Faloos was built for the Saudi market and we wanted local support. We understood the value of having people on the ground, and knew the people that would help move us forward with our process.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
AstroLabs provided invaluable support in our strategic entry into Saudi, which is one of the largest markets in MENA. PRO work can look complicated, but with the help of their on-ground specialists, AstroLabs made our whole expansion journey quick and efficient. They simplified the process remarkably.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
AstroLabs are the perfect partners to launch your business in Saudi. They set-up our company and got us the needed residency for our team. They understood our priorities and made sure that the job was done on time. We highly recommend them.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
I would recommend any company that is looking to expand to Saudi to find a local market entry partner like AstroLabs who can identify the needs from the authorities and use their local know-how to fast-track the process of expansion for businesses.
Michael de Lagarde
CEO
I want to praise the excellent work AstroLabs did in issuing my Iqama and finalizing the rest of the company setup in the Kingdom. I know how tedious the process is but with the AstroLabs know-how, patience, agility, and connections within the ecosystem.
