Manifesto Business

Manifesto is a Cairo-founded business consultancy and ventures group established in 2019, serving businesses and institutions across the Middle East and North Africa. Its work is organized into two pillars: Manifesto Consultancy, which provides strategic, regulatory, and growth advisory, and Manifesto Projects, which co-founds, finances, and manages legal, education, and technology ventures.

Consultancy services include business planning and feasibility studies, startup and SME mentorship, market-entry guidance, government relations, regulatory intelligence, policy research, offshore structuring through an affiliation with Juris Tax Group, business forums, marketing and brand strategy, and technology and digital-transformation advice. The group’s regional structuring network covers Mauritius, the UAE, Rwanda, Seychelles, Singapore, South Africa, and China.

Manifesto Projects manages the British Legal Centre’s Cairo branch, offering UK legal training, professional skills development, and arbitration certifications. It also leads SynQanun, described by the group as the first legal AI in MENA, with Arabic-focused legal research and practice tools, alongside a legal clinic initiative developed with CIARN. Manifesto’s past work spans government, development, law, technology, education, and entrepreneurship.
