Strategic foresight
Alcimed helps its clients to imagine the possible futures of their sectors, at different time horizons (3, 5, 10, 20 year, or more, forecasts). A strategic foresight exercise does not consist in forecasting the future with accuracy, but allows for anticipation and preparation for possible futures, their opportunities as well as their threats.

How we help you to achieve a strategic foresight exercise
In a strategic foresight approach, we rely both on the analysis of existing data on major trends in the environment and on weaker signals such as the arrival of a new entrant, the adoption of a new technology in a related sector or a change in usage.
Our teams work on:
- The laboratory, the factory, the hospital, the aircraft, the cockpit… of the future
- The customer experience (patient, consumer, passenger,…)
- Structural changes in a sector, an ecosystem and the associated new business models
- Up to the new skills or new professions to be developed to be better equipped for these possible futures.
EXAMPLES OF RECENT STRATEGIC FORESIGHT PROJECTS CARRIED OUT FOR OUR CLIENTS
We helped him to define a vision for 2030 and to build a roadmap with the different projects to be implemented to make his teams evolve towards this new role. We first led several working sessions with all the stakeholders involved in the different projects to identify the objectives, key steps, levers, resources, means, timing, indicators, expected deliverables and the functions involved for each project. Then, we formalized this roadmap to facilitate its diffusion internally and to communicate on the next steps.
Our purpose? Helping both private and public decision-makers explore and develop their uncharted territories: new technologies, new offers, new geographies, possible futures, and new ways to innovate.
Located across eight offices around the world (France, Europe, Singapore and the United States), our team is made up of 220 highly-qualified, multicultural and passionate explorers, with a blended science/technology and business culture.
Our dream? To build a team of 1,000 explorers, to design tomorrow's world hand in hand with our clients.
