Hey, I'm Mariam Koyava and I'm gonna help you

From Mariam Koyava:
I am the Founder and Managing Partner at SavvY with more than 15 years of experience advising companies, governments, and international organizations on financial strategy, investment attraction, and business transformation. I work across numerous countries and regions, including the Caucasus, Central Asia, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, and the United Kingdom.
I advise organizations on corporate finance, financial management systems, investment strategies, and strategic planning. My work includes building financial models, implementing IFRS reporting frameworks, and designing investment and growth strategies that enable leadership teams to make informed, data-driven decisions and improve organizational performance.
Over the course of my career, I have led and contributed to advisory projects across a wide range of sectors including banking, investment funds, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, hospitality, healthcare, telecommunications, logistics, and agribusiness. I have also worked extensively on foreign direct investment (FDI) attraction strategies and private sector development initiatives, supporting governments and investment promotion agencies in developing investor targeting frameworks, sector prioritization strategies, and institutional strengthening programs.
In addition to leading SavvY’s consulting practice, I oversee international expansion and donor-funded projects implemented in partnership with organizations such as USAID, EBRD, UNDP, and UNESCAP. Alongside my advisory work, I regularly deliver executive training programs on strategic finance, business models, and investment readiness, having trained more than 7,500 entrepreneurs, executives, and policymakers across multiple countries.
