For research, speaking, or advisory inquiries, reach out directly.

Direct contact

The cleanest path right now is a direct email.

If you are reaching out about a briefing, custom research project, speaking opportunity, or collaboration, send a note with enough context to frame the ask well.

The strongest outreach is concrete about the institution, question, and outcome.

Briefings

Include the audience, the decision context, and the regional themes that matter most.

Custom research

Include the core question, timeline, and whether the need is strategic, analytical, or editorial.

Speaking

Include the event, audience type, timing, and the subject area you want covered.

A short note is fine, but these details make the conversation sharper.

  • Who you are and what organization you represent
  • What question or decision is driving the inquiry
  • What kind of output you need: briefing, research, speaking, or another format
  • Any timing, audience, or scope constraints that matter up front
