UAE Business Awards 2024

Jul23121 MEA | UAE Business Awards 2024 19 Best International Tax Specialist 2024 – Middle East PIC Consulting is a leading expert in the United Arab Emirates’ financial industry, with a specialist focus on tax and legal consultancy and business strategy. Following the company’s title in the UAE Business Awards 2024, we speak with Co-Founder and CEO Anthony Mangiapane to learn more about the everevolving landscape of the market. IC Consulting was established by Anthony Mangiapane, an expert in business strategy and communication, and Doina Onica, a lawyer specialising in international taxation. The pair combined their extensive knowledge and experience to create PIC Consulting, a business dedicated to helping its clients realise their entrepreneurial aspirations. The company offers 360 degrees support to its clients’ business projects, helping them to create their businesses from the ground up. PIC Consulting manages the business project in its entirety, establishing a solid business structure through creating a structure chart, completing freezone or mainland company set up, drafting both tax and legal documentation, and acquiring residency visas, for example. Clientele varies day by day, mostly either international companies willing to extend their brand to the Middle East, or local start-ups in need of guidance. Naturally, the focus of each business changes with each project, which is simultaneously interesting and challenging to the team. Anthony says, “We can have projects regarding a restaurant set up and, on the other hand, a project of venture capital in the crypto industry. We must adapt ourselves and find the best way to answer our clients’ expectations.” In order to accommodate such a myriad of business ventures, the employees at PIC Consulting must operate with a businessmind and consider the needs and wants of the client. The team at PIC Consulting consists of professionals, lawyers, and business strategists with broad, international experience. Speaking of the team, Anthony tells us, “Our experienced and multi-language team is able to understand our clients’ needs and find both the legal and tax solutions, not only locally but internationally.” The company culture at PIC Consulting is positive and inclusive, where employees feel empowered, valued, and inspired to produce their best work. The company prioritises collaboration, innovation, and mutual respect so that open communication and transparency can be achieved. Staff regularly attend team-building activities, both in-person and online, to build relationships within the teams. A healthy working environment is paramount to a successful company. Being located in Ras al Khaimah, Dubai, has come with many benefits for the company. “The UAE is developing with an unrealistic speed. Every day there is an improvement, every day there is a new project. The UAE is adapting to the market demands and the world’s innovations in a spectacular manner.” The growing market means for a wealth of opportunities and new business ventures, which in turn will bring clients to PIC Consulting for expert guidance. This poses the challenge of staying ahead of trends in such a rapidly developing market, but the team at PIC Consulting are trained to stay in tune with the latest business news. The benefits outweigh the costs, however, and Anthony remains firm in his belief that the UAE is the ideal location for the business. He tells us, “UAE is a dynamic metropolis that attracts international investors due to its thriving economy, worldclass infrastructure, and business-friendly environment.” Between the business-friendly regulations, low taxes, and a wide multiculture of clientele in the United Arab Emirates, businesses are given the space and tools to take root and evolve. As for evolution, 2024 looks to be fruitful for the business. PIC Consulting aim to vigilantly monitor market trends, customer needs, and emerging technologies. Using the teams’ wealth of experience and skillset, the company will continue to build businesses from the ground up. Speaking on the year ahead, Anthony proudly announces, “This year, we aim to solidify our position as a leader in our industry, expanding our market presence, and deepening our relationships with clients and partners. We will focus on delivering exceptional value to our customers, exceeding their expectations, and driving positive outcomes for their businesses.” Contact: Anthony Mangiapane Company: Pic Consulting Web Address: https://www.picmiddleeast.com/en P
