About us
Portolan helps organizations navigate complexity when the old maps no longer work.
What we do
Portolan works with public institutions, scale-ups, corporates, and research-driven organizations on questions such as:
​
How do we make strategic decisions under uncertainty?
​
How do we integrate AI and advanced technology without eroding trust, control, or purpose?
​
How do we build organizations that remain effective when conditions change faster than plans?
​
How do we turn insight into execution — without oversimplifying reality?
​
How we work
Portolan combines:
​
Strategic analysis rooted in economics, systems thinking, and risk management
​
Deep understanding of AI, data, and digital systems
​
Hands-on experience in policy, innovation ecosystems, and high-stakes decision environments
​
We work closely with leadership teams, often in small, focused engagements where clarity matters more than volume.
Our Philosophy
We believe that:
​
Complexity should be navigated, not denied
​
Strategy is a continuous practice, not a static plan
​
Technology is only powerful when aligned with human judgment and institutional reality
Resilient organizations are built through clarity, discipline, and optionality
​
Portolan exists for moments when decisions matter, uncertainty is high, and precision is required.
