The Middle East has an information challenge

High quality, accessible market insights across the Middle East is limited. Global media is focused on conflict, resulting in low coverage of business and innovation.

Better, accessible market information, with local insights and global reach, is required in order to drive transparency and scale accessibility to Middle Eastern opportunities.

Al-Monitor PRO solves it

We centralize access to key market insights by curating original analyses from top experts across business, technology and policy, and by monitoring signals from industry influencers through artificial intelligence, all at an affordable rate.

Our convening power allows Pro members to further access the regional decision makers, thought leaders and top journalists through in-person and online events.
