About

bridge_ci advises public affairs, private equity funds, and corporate strategy teams on building world-class machine learning, open-source intelligence, and alternative data capacities. Our heritage stems from designing, creating, and leading these first programs at blue-chip organizations such as HSBC, Walmart, The European Commission, and the European Parliament. Our core advantage lies in integrating business strategy, political acumen, OSINT capabilities, alternative data, artificial intelligence, and real-world experience. A combination that zero “name” consulting firms have. To explore our services and discuss how we can help your organization, we invite you to schedule a meeting.

AI Phase X Transformation

The bridge_ci AI Phase X is an end-to-end transformation program designed to help any company or unit in any industry or sector build a bleeding-edge AI program or improve upon an existing analytical capacity. By leveraging our expertise, we guide businesses through the complex process of developing world-class data science, OSINT, and alternative data capabilities. Our focus goes beyond immediate business value – we prioritize creating user-friendly solutions that provide long-lasting benefits and can be further developed into enterprise-grade AI and data products.

Private Equity, M&A, Venture Capital

We developed SourceCore, a modular codebase framework that harmonizes hundreds of alternative data and OSINT signals that empower private equity and venture funds to automate the analysis and ranking of thousands of potential investment targets - to each fund’s exact investment criteria. By leveraging various alternative and traditional data points, we provide unrivaled precision when ranking potential targets and offer invaluable insights into emerging trends and market dynamics. Through this unique process, we minimize the need for extensive analyst involvement, thereby saving our clients millions of dollars in resources that can be redirected toward higher-value tasks.

Corporate Strategy, Go-To-Market, M&A

Not satisfied with traditional consulting frameworks that are slow and lack context and mathematical precision, we developed a proprietary technique called domain analysis. With this cutting-edge approach, we analyze petabytes of open-source intelligence and alternative data using advanced machine intelligence algorithms. What's more impressive is that this comprehensive analysis unveils intricate patterns, connecting products, trends, markets, and even people, enabling the creation of strategies with context and precision that traditional frameworks cannot compete with. The methodology offers numerous advantages. This expedites analysis and mitigates bias while fostering more creativity within strategy development. By relying on data-driven insights rather than subjective opinion, businesses can confidently make informed decisions and stay ahead of their market, maximizing upside and minimizing risk.

Public Affairs

Going back fifteen years, bridge_ci’s founder built the first AI, alternative data, and OSINT programs at multiple European Commission DGs, the European Parliament (EPP Group), and a handful of progressive EU corporate public affairs teams. Times have changed, but our methods, data, and technology ecosystem have stayed far ahead of the curve. Ultimately, an AI/data-driven approach allows your public affairs team to have faster and more precise insights at lower costs while improving policy outcomes.
