Roland Berger and Crypto Oasis will explore opportunities in the fields of blockchain and decentralised technologies in the region.

Global strategy and management consultancy Roland Berger has partnered with Crypto Oasis to pool their resources to boost the region’s blockchain ecosystem.

The consultancy has strong capabilities in helping clients to develop specific crypto economy strategies and identify use cases and investment opportunities that are critical for the future strategic positioning. The firm is the strategic advisor behind some of the biggest recent projects in the region, including the strategy for a large bitcoin mining facility and the setup of tokenised green asset exchange.

Roland Berger is handling its global crypto economy advisory out of the UAE, and with Crypto Oasis gearing up to achieve its target of identifying 1,500 organisations in the ecosystem by the end of the year, this partnership is key for both companies, particularly as they look at leveraging blockchain and decentralised technologies.

“We are delighted to welcome Roland Berger as our newest global strategic partner,” commented Ralf Glabischnig, founder of Crypto Oasis.
