Build your own futures intelligence

1. Both automatically and collaboratively scanning and monitoring change signals in one's external business environment (i.e. news, publications, discussions, etc).
2. Sense-making and discussion about the same, including tech-assisted clustering of inputs, data categorization and assessments according to your own criteria, in-app discussions, and more.
3. Ultimately summarizing your own context-specific future insights into trend radars, future scenarios, and topic-specific summaries to be used further in strategic planning, risk management, and/or innovation and R&D projects.

Think of FIBRES as a shared database for all your ideas, observations, and insights that have something to do with the future – and particularly the future of your business.

When you find something interesting about your operating environment, like news of competitor activity or a new innovation, you can save it to FIBRES as a finding.

FIBRES then makes it easy for you to structure,  summarize, and visualize these findings. You can build trend radars out of them. Or link multiple findings together and summarize their impacts.

Over time, you will accumulate valuable information about changes in your operating environment, which will help you build the future of your business.

FIBRES is typically adopted by a core team of people whose daily responsibilities involve observing and making sense of changes around them.

You might be an in-house expert working with topics related to strategy, innovation, or foresight. Or you might be a foresight, strategy, or innovation consultant helping your customers succeed.

In these roles, FIBRES brings instant value by providing a shared place to collect findings and make sense of them. From FIBRES, information can then be fed into strategy processes, innovation projects, and more.

For many of our customers, the ultimate goal is to create a foresight process where many people – even their entire organization – participate. To be able to do so, a tool like FIBRES is essential.

Unlike many other vendors of foresight tools and software, we are not a trend data provider. Our focus is on building the best platform for you to bring in inputs from your favourite sources, whatever they may be.

Instead of creating our own data sets, we partner with leading trend data providers to bring their data to you via FIBRES. We have also developed our own sourcing service FIBRESEED for automatic monitoring.

With FIBRES, it's always possible to start out with a completely empty account and only write and add findings manually yourself – and many of our customers do, in fact! With FIBRES, the choice is always yours.
