How can we cooperate in a more contested world?

Intensifying competition among major powers is reshaping global influence and regional stability, while societies are increasingly polarized in many countries. This new era is defined by contested norms, shifting alliances, and the erosion of trust. As volatility and compounding risks intensify, organizations of all types must now continuously adapt to a highly complex set of dynamics. Geoeconomics is increasingly at the heart of corporate decision-making, as companies look to develop greater geopolitical intelligence to address this highly fluid environment where long-held assumptions about security, sovereignty and impact are being challenged in real time.
