The Red Sea Challenge

The Red Sea Basin is one of the most volatile, strategic, and environmentally sensitive regions on the planet. Rapid economic, political, and environmental change creates extreme risks and opportunities for regional and external stakeholders.

Staggering Scale

Nearly $1 trillion in near-term investment is forecast to flow through the Red Sea region in the next 5 years, spanning renewable energy, transportation infrastructure, technology, tourism, agriculture, and more. Nearly 12% of global trade and 8% of the world's energy supplies depend on safe passage through these waters.

Analysis Deficit

Despite the Red Sea’s broad impact on global commerce and security, reliable data is difficult to obtain—and harder to interpret. The challenge stems from fast-moving events, few reliable data-producing regional bodies, complex overlapping conflicts, and limited knowledge of regional trends, power dynamics, and political drivers. Generalist management consultancies cannot cover Red Sea regional/ systemic problems in any real depth.

The stakes are too high for guesswork. Getting the analysis right is not just important—it is essential

Our Hybrid Architecture

1. Career Project Management

Every project is led by one or more senior project managers. Our founders and senior project managers have lived and worked across the Red Sea for much of their careers—not as visiting consultants, but as locally based senior executives, diplomats, development and humanitarian workers, and operational leads. This represents decades of direct engagement with key stakeholders.

2. >200 Expert Network (and growing)

Our broader network of subject matter specialists includes former ministers, ambassadors, trade analysts, marine ecologists, climate scientists, supply chain experts, engineers, etc. Each brings a distinguished career of Red Sea- relevant experience. These are trusted colleagues whose feedback is available in hours, not weeks.

3. Proprietary Data

Supplementing our human expertise and AI platform is information from vetted sources in multiple subregional languages, real-time shipping and environmental data, all reinforced by continuing interactions with our expert pool.

4. Big Red™ AI

Our proprietary AI platform, Big Red™, is the connective tissue of the operation—a sophisticated multi-agent system that links queries to diagnostics, experts, project leads, and proprietary data. It provides historical context and identifies patterns across disparate sources. Its mission is to enable and amplify human expertise rather than replace it.
