ISAR Global

Our Approach

ISAR Global was born out of a recognition that international AI governance requires something the policy landscape currently lacks: rigorous, independent intelligence on how coordination mechanisms actually function, not how they promise to function.

We’re not here to “disrupt”. We don’t “move fast and break things”. We represent a different tradition entirely—one that values careful observation over breathless speculation, empirical evidence over ideological positioning, and institutional seriousness over performative innovation.

Our approach draws from British institutional methodology: systematic process analysis, long-term pattern recognition, and the understanding that governance complexity cannot be solved with slogans or addressed through advocacy alone. It requires patient, meticulous tracking of what international frameworks actually deliver versus what they claim to deliver.

We build institutional knowledge infrastructure, not temporary commentary. We serve senior officials managing genuine governance complexity, not audiences seeking reassurance that everything will work out fine.

This matters because international AI governance is at an inflection point. Framework proliferation is accelerating. Coordination rhetoric is intensifying. And the gap between institutional promises and implementation reality continues to widen.

Understanding that gap—systematically, empirically, without ideological bias—requires an institution willing to do work that takes time, demands precision, and produces insights that may prove uncomfortable for all parties.

That’s ISAR Global’s contribution. Not disruption. Not innovation theatre. Just rigorous intelligence on how these mechanisms actually function, delivered to those who require truth over reassurance.
