About Us | MAKTUB Global Consulting | Maktub Global Consulting

Overview

MAKTUB Global Consulting is a UAE-based consulting firm headquartered in Dubai, created with the purpose of bridging Latin America and the Middle East through knowledge, trust, and opportunity.

Our team of professionals brings together over 25 years of experience in business development, international trade, and strategic consulting throughout the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region.

Originally from Argentina, our founders have spent decades building connections, understanding market dynamics, and cultivating strong relationships across both regions. Today, through MAKTUB, we transform that experience into a platform that guides entrepreneurs, companies, and institutions to expand successfully into new markets.

The word "Maktub" in Arabic means "it is written" — a profound reminder that while destiny may be written, success depends on how we act upon it. At MAKTUB Global Consulting, we believe that with the right vision, guidance, and strategy, every business can fulfill its written destiny — transforming opportunity into achievement.

Who We Are

Based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, MAKTUB Global Consulting is a strategic consulting firm dedicated to connecting Latin America with the Middle East. With over 25 years of experience in business development and trade across the GCC, our team bridges two vibrant regions through deep cultural understanding, trusted partnerships, and tailored market strategies.

Our multicultural team is composed of seasoned professionals with decades of experience in international business, trade, and cross-cultural consulting. Originating from Argentina and established in Dubai, we bring Latin American dynamism and creativity together with Middle Eastern vision and opportunity.

We understand that successful international expansion requires more than just market research — it demands cultural fluency, strategic positioning, and the right network of partners. Whether you're a Latin American company seeking to enter GCC markets, or a Middle Eastern enterprise exploring opportunities in Latin America, we provide the guidance, connections, and hands-on support to navigate these exciting but complex markets.

Our name, MAKTUB, means "it is written" in Arabic — a reminder that great partnerships and meaningful connections are destined when built on trust, respect, and shared purpose. We don't just facilitate transactions; we forge lasting relationships that transcend borders and create value for all stakeholders.
