Before we begin

A north star is the one sentence a company steers by. When you are unsure whether something is right for ORIGIN, measure it against this.

Part 1

The north star

Our north star

To be recognised as the leading partner for national vision enablement in real estate and ICT across Saudi Arabia.

ICT stands for information and communications technology.

In plain words: Saudi Arabia has a national plan, Vision 2030, to transform its economy. Enablement means helping that plan happen. When a real estate or technology company needs to play its part in that plan, ORIGIN should be the first partner it thinks of.

The five years ahead, 2026 to 2031

Through our blend of strategy, brand and technology, ORIGIN aims to be the brand transformation house that any real estate, technology or government organisation in Saudi Arabia turns to first.

Why now

01

Whole sectors are being rebuilt at once, and organisations that once relied on reputation now have to compete on brand.

02

In real estate and ICT, the two sectors we have chosen, no firm is yet the obvious choice. ORIGIN already has proven work in both.

03

Global consultancies need a partner who can deliver what they plan. We are that partner.

Act 04 takes each sector in turn. This is not a change of direction. It is a natural evolution: from survival, to strategy, to shaping a market.

A lead reaches you from a sector we have not chosen. The deal is large. What do you do?

That question decides more than the size of the deal. The next section tells you who weighs it: the Growth Team.

Remember

The leading partner for national vision enablement in real estate and ICT.

Part 2
