Press Release – March 20th, 2023

Strengthening presence in the UAE and the Middle East

ALTIOS Group announces the expansion of its activities in the United Arab Emirates and the Middle East by acquiring a stake in Steering Advisory headquartered in Dubai. As a leading international business development consulting firm dedicated to small and mid-caps, ALTIOS Group pursues its expansion into the world’s largest markets and key regional hubs.

Steering Advisory was founded by two lawyers, Guillaume de Rocquigny and Florian Guais, in association with Nabile Sabbani. The company has currently 12 staff members and manages corporate and accounting services for more than 100 clients.

Altios Group set up an office in the UAE 4 years ago. This acquisition reinforces Altios Group’s activities in the country on a panel of services from Strategic Advisory to Operational Execution, including:
- Market Entry & Expansion: Market research, Go-To-Market Strategy, Business Partnership & Growth
- Global HR Solution: Recruitment, Payroll services, visa & HR advisory
- Corporate Services: Company set-up, Domiciliation & Management of International Subsidiaries (accounting, financial reporting, payroll, compliance, tax…)
- Crossborder Acquisition: Screening, Negotiation, Due-Diligence, Transaction, Post-Acquisition Integration

Steering will reinforce ALTIOS’ Set-up pillar (Corporate Services), part of the international business expansion, on a large range of services: company formation, local domiciliation, directorship, legal compliance, accounting, payroll and tax, supply chain, and distribution platform.

ALTIOS Group’s Testimonial

“ We are very pleased to be associated with Steering Advisory in partnership with Guillaume and Florian. It would allow Altios to reinforce its local presences and expand its offer and services in the Middle East with a solid base.

We firmly believe that the Middle East, beyond only Dubai or UAE, has a lot to offer to our clients, but like Singapore for South East Asia, it is good to position their regional HQ in Dubai. Thanks to the team from Steering Advisory we have now great expertise. ”
