Who We Are
Commsbridge Consulting is a research and strategic communications firm operating across Kenya and Somalia. Since 2013, we have supported organizations working in complex environments to generate insight, shape clear narratives, and engage the audiences that matter with precision and credibility.
Our team brings over 20 years of combined experience across research, strategic communications, journalism, media relations, translation and stakeholder engagement. This depth sets us apart from generalist firms. We understand the political, cultural and security dynamics that define the Horn of Africa, and we produce analysis and communications that stand up to scrutiny from Nairobi boardrooms to international donor institutions.
We work with corporates, development partners, government institutions and NGOs that require evidence-based research and communications grounded in local context and delivered to international standards.
Our team also includes researchers from the various backgrounds in Nutrition, Education Health, Child protection, Monitoring and Evaluation including financial and business backgrounds, which gives Commsbridge Consulting access to a large pool of qualified and talented experts.
