“You saw COVID, you saw supply chains, so what the hell else are you seeing right now?”

—Blackstone

We seek to answer the most critical question of our time, “What’s Next?”, through the use of high quality scenarios.

Navigating global disruptions and emerging risk requires great imagination, critical thinking, and powerful tools. You have to be able to both see the future and effectively communicate it to allow others to act. You need expert scenario development, anaylisis, and enrichment.

By balancing a disciplined analytical approach with an insatiable appetite for uncovering the non-obvious, material issues, and impacts has allowed us to efficiently model impacts from Climate, COVID-19, and a rapidly shifting geopolitical landscape on average 90 days before major disruptive events have transpired.

When analyzing satellite imagery and the data of our planet, we see many curious anomalies, and the impacts of modern civilization. This unique vantage point allows us to imagine and predict what others can not.

We may not be able to solve each crisis, but we believe that we develop scenarios, to improve conditions, reduce options, and prepare to gain an edge.

We enable better critical decisions by global leadership.

We have been recognized by global leaders and won awards for our technology.

Our GeoAI platform has won awards and accolades from Microsoft, U.S Department of Commerce, NOAA, ESRI, and Epic. We pride ourselves on the ability to constantly push the critical application of emerging technology across geospatial intelligence, remote sensing networks of satellites and IOT devices, AI language and prediction toolsets.

We are serious and work with the best.

Climate is the most pressing issue of our time and our clients and collaborators are the global leaders in corporate and governmental climate action. We work with the UN, President of COP26, TCFD, International Consulates, as well as global corporations who have made the most ambitious climate pledges such as Microsoft and Walmart. Our methods and tools have been used by teams at IBM, MIT, UN, NASA, and governments.

Our methodologies and technology have been peer reviewed by the U.S Department of Commerce & NOAA.

The one thing we have learned by working with these groups, is that they seek constant improvement and better understanding. They don’t treat this critical work as a check the box or compliance activity, they incorporate it into all facets of strategy and culture, seeking better methods, tools, and people to help them tackle this most serious of issues.

We know how investors think.

We have been engaged to conduct due diligence on transactions, investments, supply chains, geographical expansion, and climate related risk factors for banks, hedge funds, asset managers, and private equity. We know how to develop effective communication that allows decision support by multi-stakeholder investor groups.

We are storytellers, We tell a story of data and human behaviors.

Scenarios and narratives are stories, and we know stories captivate and convince. Stories reframe thinking, Stories motivate shareholders. Stories are about understanding audiences, and context in a way that is material and actionable. We use data to ground truth narratives, and encourage critical thinking about plausibility and non-obvious impacts. Using data, computational analysis, and visual storytelling helps multi-stakeholder audiences better understand and assess the complex issues, and act more quickly.

We don’t focus on one area of risk.

Climate is all encompassing, everything and everyone you know is only here due to the unique life supporting climate of Earth. Civilization has flourished because of these conditions, and they have been rapidly changing. We have developed complex interwoven value chains in a globalized trade environment that are so much more complex, material, and nuanced than most of us can imagine.

We have to reimagine risk.

“You always have the stuff that scares us a bit, but we need to hear it, and act.”
