Businesses We've Transformed.
We believe the best measure of an advisory firm is its clients' results — not its credentials or its consultants' CVs. Here's a selection of the transformations we're most proud of.
Transformative Results at Scale
Scaling a Laundry Startup into the GCC's Leading On-Demand Service
When Washmen approached Dillon & Bird, they had strong product-market fit in Dubai but lacked the operational framework, financial infrastructure, and expansion strategy to scale. We redesigned their unit economics, built their investor model, and co-authored their GCC expansion strategy.
More Success Stories
Regulatory Strategy & ADGM Licensing for a Fintech Pioneer
Sarwa needed a robust regulatory strategy and ADGM FSRA licensing to launch its digital wealth management platform in the UAE. We navigated the full regulatory process and structured the operational and compliance framework.
Operational Transformation Ahead of Series C
As Kitopi prepared for its Series C, we led a comprehensive operational and financial transformation — restructuring their unit economics, redesigning management reporting, and preparing investor materials that contributed to a successful raise.
Second-Generation Succession & Professionalisation
A third-generation UAE family business with AED 2B in revenue engaged us to lead succession planning, governance restructuring, and the transition to professional management — preserving family harmony while unlocking institutional-grade performance.
GCC Market Entry for European Retail Brand
A UK premium retail brand sought to enter the GCC market. We delivered a full market entry strategy, identified the optimal franchise partner, structured the partnership agreement, and managed the regulatory setup across three markets.
Digital Transformation for a Regional Conglomerate
A multi-business UAE conglomerate needed to modernise its technology infrastructure and create a digital strategy capable of driving group-level efficiencies. We delivered a 3-year digital transformation roadmap now in active execution.
Investor Relations & Fundraising Strategy
A UAE real estate developer needed to raise AED 500M in project financing. We designed the investor relations strategy, built the financial model, prepared the information memorandum, and managed lender relationships through to drawdown.
