Who we are

Clinical judgement, Saudi access and consultancy discipline, in one team.

AlDraye is a physician-led advisory firm that helps healthcare companies enter Saudi Arabia and grow there. We sit between global consultancies, which bring method but not inside access, and local agents, which bring contacts but rarely a defensible plan.

01

Clinical judgement

A practising clinician and healthcare industry expert leads every engagement. Every clinical claim and adoption plan is checked against evidence, regulation and how hospitals really work.

02

Saudi access

We name the department, the decision-maker and the route in, across regulators, hospitals, clinical leaders, distributors and investors.

03

Consultancy discipline

Studies and plans written to the standard of leading global firms, each with a clear recommendation, including when not to proceed.

"From the first question to the first sale, and beyond: we advise, we prepare, and when it makes sense, we invest and build with you."
What we do

Our services are modular. Most clients start with a focused sprint and add services as the opportunity becomes clear. Every engagement is scoped to your product, your timeline and your goals.

Track record

We have built inside Saudi healthcare, not just advised on it.

Our team has designed new services, founded registries, convened international scientific meetings and negotiated hospital–industry partnerships. That experience is what we bring to every client.Out of respect for client confidentiality, we do not publish client names, products or project details. Relevant case studies are shared on request during an introductory meeting.

Our network

A senior team for every project.

Every engagement is backed by a network of senior partners, activated according to what each project needs.

Senior partner network

Partners are introduced by role and experience in every proposal, and named under confidentiality once a project begins.
