Horizon Scanning

What are the implications of regional trade tariffs on global supply chains? How would climate change affect economic and demographic trajectories? How can you penetrate your competitors’ circles of influence?

As the business environment has become more complex and interconnected, there’s a pressing need for coherent, systematic decision-making. Leading organizations need the ability to not only identify current risk signals and anticipate emerging events, but to seize the opportunity hidden within them. 

Armed with advanced analytic capabilities and decision-support infrastructure, companies can draw warning signals of future shocks from a universe of data that is vast, diverse and continually evolving.

The Research Studio delivers near-real-time prescriptive intelligence on the global strategic, economic and social risk issues most relevant to your organization. 

By aggregating and synthesizing billions of web pages and external data, Research Studio’s Horizon Scanning capabilities help organizations:

• Detect issues early on
• Proactively monitor emerging trends
• Predict the speed of onset and risk velocity
• Drive business growth
• Mitigate risk impact
• Focus on decision-making, not data analysis
  

With ongoing scanning of billions of data points, organizations can surface emerging patterns and insights with relation to economic, social, political and strategic interests. Mapping uncharted causal chains and unlikely correlations can determine future consequences of current events.

Recent developments in augmented analytics and knowledge creation are seeing technology taking center stage, allowing companies to uncover patterns and insights far beyond the ability of the human mind. By leveraging all of the world’s knowledge, Research Studio can be your company's mission control, scanning everything that can affect your organization.
