At Medal Consulting, we believe that meaningful transformation begins at the intersection of local insight, development strategy, and bold collaboration. Our growing journey into Kenya reflects this belief — and is a testament to our mission to support inclusive, resilient, and sustainable development.
Kenya, the economic engine of East and Central Africa, offers an environment rich in opportunity and ripe for impact. With its dynamic private sector, strong regional position, and ambitious Vision 2030 agenda, Kenya is charting a bold path toward middle-income status. This path creates new and evolving demands for high-quality consulting services — from strategy and capacity building to MEL and socioeconomic transformation. We’ve heard that call and responded.
Our Impact
Today, with 200,000+ lives impacted, 1175+ happy clients, and 350+ successful projects, our story continues — driven by innovation, resilience, and an unshakable dedication to equity and empowerment.
Building Meaningful Partnerships
We recognize that sustainable solutions begin with trust. That’s why our entry into Kenya is grounded in local partnerships. By working with Kenyan firms, we aim to amplify our collective capabilities, tap into local expertise, and co-create value for clients ranging from government to donor-funded initiatives and private enterprises.

Tailored, Transformational Services
Socioeconomic Impact Assessments

Capacity Building
Equipping local organizations with the skills and systems needed to grow, adapt, and lead. From public administration to grassroots leadership — we tailor training to local context while committed to global standards.
Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL):
Designing frameworks and tools to track performance, measure results, assess impact, drive learning, and ensure accountability across programs.
Why Kenya?
Kenya isn’t just a strategic entry point to East Africa — it’s a country on the rise, backed by bold infrastructure projects, regional trade agreements, and a thriving ecosystem of innovators. But with that momentum comes complexity. SMEs, public institutions, and international actors alike face operational, regulatory, and social challenges that demand informed, contextualized support.
We bring a human-centered, locally-adapted, and regionally-informed approach that meets these challenges with clarity, precision, and care
Experienced Team
Our strength lies in our people—a diverse group of professionals with expertise spanning policy, business strategy, and community development. Supported by a network of over 200 consultants, trainers, and international advisors, our team is dedicated to delivering excellence in every project. Our collaborative spirit and commitment to quality have earned us the trust of clients and partners worldwide.
