About Us
An indigenous Ghanaian strategy and research firm
Founded in 2011 and based in East Legon, Accra, Aliska works with governments, regulators, development partners, businesses and communities to answer one question: what will actually reduce poverty and build lasting prosperity here?
We answer it with evidence. Our researchers go where the economy really happens — into markets, farms and workshops — and our strategists turn what they find into policies, national programmes and digital products that people use. Through Trident Aliska Digital Tech, our joint venture with Nasdaq-listed Trident Digital Tech Holdings, we build the technology too.
Explore what we doFrom evidence to outcomes
Our method is simple and uncompromising: find what is true, decide what will work, and build it so it reaches the last mile.
-
01
Research what is true
We go into the markets, farms and workshops where Ghana’s economy actually happens, and gather evidence first-hand.
-
02
Design what will work
Our strategists turn the findings into policies, national programmes and plans built for the people they are meant to serve.

03
Build the tools that deliver
Through Trident Aliska Digital Tech we design and ship the digital products that carry these solutions to scale.
Why Aliska exists
To lift people out of poverty — sustainably
We use research to design the policies, plans and products that lift people out of poverty and keep growth sustainable.
An Africa where policy is grounded in evidence
A Ghana, and an Africa, where every policy is grounded in evidence and every citizen and business shares in the growth it creates.
Research, design, build, share
We research what is true, design what will work, build the tools that deliver it, and share the rewards with the people and partners who make it happen.
What we hold ourselves to
Evidence first
We decide on facts, and we say what the data shows — even when it is uncomfortable.
Built for the last mile
A solution only counts if it works for the trader, farmer or household it is meant for.
Shared reward
Our staff, clients, partners and communities all gain when our work succeeds.
Integrity & confidentiality
We protect our clients’ information and data with strict security, and we keep our word.
Cooperation
We work as one team with our clients, welcome different ideas and build trust through openness.
From evidence to impact, and back again
Most firms stop at the report. We carry the work through to results, then use what we learn to make the next study sharper.
-
01
Research
We go to the market, the farm and the office to measure what is really happening.
-
02
Policy
We turn findings into policies, plans and programmes that are practical, fundable and measurable.
-
03
Products
Where delivery needs technology, we build it with our partners, so good policy reaches people at scale.
-
04
Shared impact
We track the results openly and share the rewards with our people, partners and the communities we serve. What we learn from real use feeds our next piece of research.
