MEA Group

What MEA Group does

MEA Group is a privately held, founder-led Australian professional services group headquartered in Melbourne, operating through three wholly-owned subsidiaries: MEA Consultancy (founded 2013, the migration and education advisory core), MEA Capital (founded 2019, investment and wealth management), and Integro Lawyers (formed from the former MEA Legal team, providing licensed legal advisory). The group serves individuals and families seeking to migrate to or study in Australia, Australian employers seeking to sponsor overseas workers, and high-net-worth clients (predominantly from China and Asia) seeking Australian property, business, and asset management exposure. Service breadth spans the full visa catalog — skilled migration (Subclass 189, 190, 491), employer-sponsored (Subclass 482, 186), partner and parent visas, student and visitor visas, working holiday, business innovation and significant investor streams, and the post-2024 National Innovation Visa — together with education placement (primary, secondary, higher education, vocational, foundation, English language), legal services across ten practice areas including commercial litigation and family law, and investment services covering residential and commercial property, business acquisition, and renewable energy.

The group operates six offices across Melbourne, Brisbane, Hobart, Shanghai, Changsha, and Hong Kong, supported by a roughly eleven-person team of solicitors, registered migration agents, a Qualified Education Counsellor (QEAC: G121), paralegals, client relationship managers, and a marketing officer. Revenue is generated entirely through professional services fees: unit-priced consultations (AUD 220 for 30-minute express, AUD 440 for 1-hour in-person), legal service fees, education counselling and placement fees, and investment advisory and asset management charges. Demand is generated through a content-led funnel comprising a blog covering Australian policy updates, free online assessment tools (Skilled Visa Points Calculator, Employer Sponsorship Assessment), a newsletter subscription, and an active social presence on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Paid consultation bookings at the Melbourne office and via video call serve as the primary conversion mechanism, with cross-referrals across the three subsidiaries designed to capture multi-line wallet share per client.
