How we do what we do

We utilise a bespoke approach to research and analysis with our methods tailored to best deliver on your needs. However, our projects can all draw from a synergised 3-thread methodology;

1) Our Core:

At the heart of an LP project is a team of highly skilled OSINT and multidisciplinary subject matter Analysts dedicated to your project and focused on providing you with actionable analysis in any one of our formats.

2) A Holistic Approach:

Our project teams are supported by the regular research, horizon scans, and analytical output of one or more of London Politica’s 12 Research Programmes, which between them have 180+ Analysts, speaking over 37 languages in 45+ countries across the globe. These are;

  • Europe

  • Middle East

  • Indo-Pacific

  • North America

  • Latin America

  • Africa

  • Central Asia and the Caucasus

  • Global Commodities

  • Emergent Technologies

  • ESG

  • Geopolitics on the Periphery (space, Arctic, Antarctic, and seabed)

  • Intelligence Support Group (OSINT, GEOINT, SOCINT)

These are fed into our project teams to ensure that not only do they benefit from truly comprehensive global awareness, but also interconnected thematic trends are identified, with a particular focus on overlooked or emerging risks and opportunities.

3) Supported by Global “on-the-ground” Expertise

Our project teams can also rely on insight and on-ground expert support drawn from our 200+ Global Expert Network (GEN).

These are Heads of State, ministers, journalists, due diligence specialists, civil society leaders, defence officials, academics, heads of international organisations, and related specialists who provide further expertise, analysis, and insight on the ground in relevant areas which complement London Politica’s formal teams on an ad-hoc as-needed basis.

The provision of on-ground expertise through GEN, and our Research Programme’s broader relevant analysis synergises with the project team’s own direct OSINT and subject matter-based research to ensure a holistic overview is provided that goes beyond the headlines and delivers analysis that is incisive, actionable, global, and is integrated into the geopolitical tapestry allowing current and emerging risks to be identified, properly managed, and seized.
