Our Profile

Mission Encourage, nurture, teach, research and practice strategic foresight 2.0 - at a high professional level.
Summary We are visionaries and strategic thinkers. We enable those with whom we work to explore, make sense of and respond strategically to the turmoil of change. We see beyond the problems of the Industrial Age to the paths that lead to a society and economy that is truly aligned with the emerging requirements of the 21st Century.
Strengths With a world-wide network of colleagues and Fellows, we are earning a global reputation as pioneers of the next generation of futures research and strategic foresight.  We are a unique, research-based group with a grasp on the evolution of our modern Industrial economy and society into a truly post-Industrial, co-creative civilization.
