Business Value
Global events such as trade wars, geopolitical conflicts, pandemics, and great power rivalries significantly affect both private and public sectors. Executives are increasingly aware of the significance of geopolitics and are seeking ways to incorporate it into their decision-making processes. Politea’s approach is grounded in research and experience in security policy, economics, technology, and social issues from Swedish, European, and global perspectives.
