Building and Using a Synthetic Expert Panel for National Capability Analysis

The use of synthetic simulation in the early development of the National Capability Framework required more than isolated, one-off model outputs. To meaningfully stress-test assumptions, compare perspectives, and observe patterns across judgments, we needed a coherent and internally consistent synthetic panel, one that could approximate the diversity, structure, and variance

Synthetic Simulation as a Hypothesis-Building Instrument in National Capability Research

Power, prosperity, and resilience represent the most consequential and defining priorities for any nation. Yet the analytical challenge that underpins these outcomes is persistent: national capability is inherently systemic, multi-dimensional, and generational, while most available indicators are fragmented, backward-looking, or proxy-based. The ambition of the Global Institute for National Capability

Photonic Sensors: Measuring the Physical World Through Light to Power Modern National Capability

Using light to sense, measure, and secure the physical world, photonic sensors are becoming a foundational technology for national security, critical infrastructure resilience, advanced industry, and next-generation healthcare.
