About Us.
Curious About Our Culture?
Momentum Labs is a start-up studio, boutique consultancy, and growth partner innovating at the intersection of technology, business, and social impact.
At our Start-Up Studio, we are on a mission to introduce new initiatives and ventures in Palestine by taking in-house R&D projects from concept to product. We specialize in verticals that build on existing local industries.
We invest in idea-stage ventures, as well as design and launch our own ventures in-house.
Our boutique consultancy specializes in high-precision evidence-based intelligence. One of our earlier ventures is MENA Analytics, a polling firm which specializes in high-precision data collection. Tools and access provided by MENA Analytics help our clients collect primary data in a timely, accurate and effective manner.
Our focus at Momentum Labs is to build on the data collected and implement data-driven strategies for a broad mix of private, public, and social sector organizations locally and regionally.
Combining our venture building with sector-specific consultancy expertise, we act as a growth partner for startups, corporates and organisations.
We offer our ‘startup-studio as a service’ to new ventures looking to set up shop and corporates looking to grow through introducing new products.
We also work with civil society organisations and development agencies to design beneficiary-driven programmes that address pressing socioeconomic needs.
