AFI Capability

The Arctic Futures Initiative – AFI – offers a unique strategy and decision-support capability to organizations strategically affected by trends and events emanating from the Arctic.  AFI offers a way to understand not only the changing Arctic, but also its impact on the greater global operating environment: politics, economics, business, diplomatic, and military affairs.  AFI helps executives to rigorously explore Arctic risks and opportunities, and to develop strategies and contingent plans that will provide competitive advantage regardless of how events transpire north (or south) of the 67th parallel. Just as important, AFI provides organizations with non-Arctic interests the means to evaluate the effects of Arctic trends and events on their operations. AFI is a powerful – and practical – planning tool for understanding the global implications of an opening Arctic.
