About
Strategy Foresight Ltd is an innovative technology company that develops solutions to help organisations improve their decision making under conditions of uncertainty and complexity.

Strategy Foresight's approach focuses on our customers' most critical issues and opportunities in strategy modelling, business contingency planning, policy and stakeholder analysis, organisational design and restructuring and technological forecasting across all industries and geographies.
The decision-support platform combines qualitative and quantitative data into a single easy-to-use visually interactive tool.
