About us

"Only the thorough analysis of today's situation enables us to create value for the future"
Ali Madani, CEO

AVICENNE Développement was founded in 1992 by Ali Madani. His vision and determination was pre-eminent in establishing AVICENNE Développement among the top consulting companies in three main industries:

• Telecom (Long Distance Telecommunications, Internet, etc)
• Batteries & Power supply (Batteries, Mobile phones, etc)
• Healthcare and Medical devices (Orthopaedics, Prosthesis, Implants, Biomaterials, etc)

With time AVICENNE Développement positioned itself among the world’s best and served successfully hundreds of companies in their decision-making and solved intelligently the most complex challenges.

Today AVICENNE consultants are experts in these industries and our forecasts have become a reference worldwide as the "most accurate in these industries". Top managers and shareholders have repeatedly and unanimously expressed their full satisfaction of our work (see testimonials).

This success demanded an expansion of our Network and during the last decade AVICENNE Développement expanded its business conduct to international offices in the USA (San Diego), Japan (Tokyo) and Austria (Vienna).

Today AVICENNE Développement is a small but internationally renowned company with extensive business contacts. It was build thanks to our consultants who where formerly involved in these industries and these actors and due to our persistent cooperation with top management. These contacts include companies in Japan, Europe, Switzerland, USA, China and South-East Asia.

AVICENNE Développement provides sustainable and in-depth information for decision-makers in highly innovative and fluctuant industries. This valuable information permits our clients to take the best financial, operational and strategic decisions. Basically we work in three steps:

• Analyse status quo
• Offer practicable solutions
• Present future perspective

By this way we emphasize on the quality of our releases and our task is to evaluate the data in the right context and time in order to create valuable and actual information for decision-makers. For further information please click here.
