World-renowned research, turned into tailored strategy by the Institute’s Strategic Agent.
More than a hundred indexed datasets, modelled with proprietary machine learning.
Global news and social sentiment, read in real time with algorithmic natural language processing.
Thinking of strategic consequence.
Security rests on three axes of sovereignty.
Whatever you lead — a nation, an institution, a fund, an enterprise — your position on each axis is already set, and most of it appears in no rating, threat assessment or briefing. ISII makes the position measurable, and the path forward actionable.
Who shapes what your society sees, believes and acts on?
Nearly six billion people now think inside attention architectures owned by enterprises from two states — and the capture feels like freedom, so no one resists it.
The Cognitive Sovereignty Index places every nation on a five-tier ladder, from Captured to Sovereign.
No nation today qualifies as Sovereign — the highest tier reached anywhere is Guarded.
Measurement is the first act of defence. Strategy is the second.
Can you finance and sustain growth and prosperity?
Building the Information Age is a US$123 trillion task, priced country by country. Markets charge for power — not for the durability beneath it.
The Growth & Prosperity Map measures the power to capture the decade’s growth — and the durability to keep it.
Of twelve advanced economies mapped, only six are positioned to attempt to capture the opportunities ahead.
The Map shows the risk beneath your growth — and the durability to build.
In the technology economy, who holds decisive leverage — and who is exposed to it?
Compute, data, platforms, energy, materials, standards, infrastructure — every economy on Earth sits downstream of at least two chokepoints it does not hold.
The Technology Index is the instrument to score leverage, not only capability, at every chokepoint.
China controls four chokepoints; America three. Everyone else pays tolls on systems they do not control, paving the way for strategic dependence.
The Index scores your exposure — and charts the path from dependence to position.
From insight, to measurement, to strategy, to action.
Critical insight and foresight.
Research that reads geopolitics, technology, cognition and capital in one frame — identifying transitions, shocks and inflection points before they become consensus.
Distinctive measurement.
Three public indices — and the datasets beneath them — turn the research into comparable, queryable positions. The public editions are free to read and cite, for everyone.
Research made actionable.
An AI strategist, built by the Institute and fine-tuned on its entire body of thought, its indices and its data. It does not summarise the research; it applies it — to a specific nation, portfolio, enterprise or decision.
From strategy to outcome.
Confidential briefings, mandates and implementation support carry the work into action — before vulnerabilities harden into dependence. What is learned in action returns to the research.
The loop is closed by design. Nothing the Institute produces is finished at publication.
Where the research becomes yours.
The Institute’s research, indices and datasets — fused with the Strategist — in one confidential working platform for the people who must decide. Members query the data, test positions, and turn every paper into strategy for the nation, enterprise or mandate in front of them. Seats are held by subscription, underwritten by funders for those who carry mandates without budgets, and included in every Institute engagement.
Access follows responsibility, not status.

ISII's mission is to provide the pivotal thinking, measurements, strategic tools and counsel that enables the consequential decisions that states, enterprises and individuals make to advance cognitive, economic and technological sovereignty for a peaceful and secure transition to the Systems Age.
