What this domain covers
Multinational strategy now runs through technology policy. Where a company trains its models, where its data rests, which standards it adopts and which jurisdictions it can be compelled by have become board-level questions with genuinely geopolitical consequences.
This domain covers how large enterprises navigate that terrain — structured AI adoption programmes, supply chains rebuilt to absorb disruption after two decades of optimising the slack out of them, and the corporate diplomacy that firms now practise whether or not they have named it.
The audience is the operator rather than the observer. The essays are written for people who have to make the decision and live with it.

Large technology-dependent firms now maintain what amounts to a foreign policy. Most of them do it accidentally, through a series of procurement decisions nobody recognised as strategic at the time. Anubhav Sachar

Writing in Global Business Strategies
Corporate Diplomacy: When Enterprises Negotiate Like States
Large technology-dependent firms now maintain a de facto foreign policy, assembled from procurement and data-residency decisions nobody labelled strategic. Making it deliberate changes the outcome.
Cross-Border Resilience After the Efficiency Era
Two decades of optimisation removed the slack that used to absorb shocks. Rebuilding it without surrendering competitiveness is the defining supply-chain problem of the decade.
The Fortune 2000 AI Adoption Curve — What Separates the Top Decile
Patterns drawn from enterprises that moved past pilots into production, and the specific governance choices that allowed them to scale while their peers stalled.
