About Maia

Founded in 2001 and proudly working with 20 of the Fortune 500, Maia Strategy Group is a market intelligence and strategy consulting firm that provides in-depth customized research and analysis on our clients’ external market environment. Our excellence in primary research allows us to provide detailed insight on our clients’ global markets, competitors, customers and channel partners.  Our analytical techniques transform this market intelligence into strategic action.  Clients come to us when they have “gaps in intelligence” on their global markets.  We fill those gaps with “hard to get” facts and develop winning strategies.

In 2005, Maia leveraged its research and analytical expertise to provide consulting services to the Public Sector. The Government now represents 25% of our revenue and is our fastest growing practice area.

In 2008, Neil Sikder and Moira Koch became the two primary Principals of Maia Strategy Group.  Since 2008, Mr. Sikder and Ms. Koch doubled the firm’s revenue by focusing on three primary growth initiatives:

  • Expand into major global markets
  • Redefine the engagement delivery process to ensure we delight clients with an engaging, responsive and cooperative experience
  • Build a substantial Public Sector practice

At Maia, we apply quality control techniques commonly practiced in a manufacturing environment to our engagement delivery process. This starts from the top. Principals are deeply involved in the day-to-day project delivery. The consistency of our performance is exemplified by the fact that 80% of our revenue is with repeat clients.

It all comes down to our philosophy. Our mantra is “the process is just as important as the final results.”  We firmly believe that by focusing on the process of delivering our work, by being sensitive to client needs and responsive to their requests, then our final results will always be exceptional.
