SOLIS Insight before consensus. Financial and geopolitical intelligence. THE PURPOSE Connect public developments to the financial and operational exposures that matter to investment, risk, and strategy teams. THE SOLIS APPROACH The Solis approach centers on a clear assessment: what changed, who is exposed, how the impact could unfold, and what the evidence supports. THE WORKFLOW Signal: Identify the development and distinguish announced, enacted, expected, and uncertain changes. Exposure: Trace the potential impact through companies, suppliers, counterparties, assets, and portfolio dependencies. Evidence: Examine sources, conflicting information, missing facts, and analytical assumptions. Assessment: Bring the implications, alternatives, open questions, and next investigations into a concise decision brief. WHO IT IS FOR Investment teams: company and sector research, diligence, and portfolio context. Risk and resilience teams: supplier, counterparty, and asset exposure. Strategic intelligence teams: policy, capital relationships, industry developments, and strategic planning. THE EXPERIENCE BEHIND SOLIS Solis draws on three decades of experience in software engineering, artificial intelligence, scientific computing, data systems, and venture creation. Observation to decision: fluid dynamics, remote sensing, robotics, marine analytics, and decision-support systems. Systems and dependencies: software architecture, data engineering, business requirements, and complex integration, including telecommunications merger integration. Commercial reality: venture formation, product development, commercialization, partnerships, and execution constraints. Institutional perspective: work across industry, government, academia, and startups. Venture-building experience spans oceanography, energy, manufacturing, trade, telecommunications, sports, video, health, finance, education, and law. THE STANDARD Source-linked reasoning. Explicit uncertainty. Analyst judgment. Trace each assessment to its evidence, distinguish fact from inference, and make the assumptions clear. The website workflow uses a hypothetical export-policy scenario.
