The Story of Serica Insights

Serica was the term used by the Greco-Roman, Ptolemy, to refer to the silk knowledgeable peoples at the end of their known world to the East in what is now the China peninsula. This meeting of West and East within a word with such historical pedigree is where our journey begins.

 

Decades of international research, analysis, and network building in Japan, Southeast Asia, the US, and Europe has resulted in SERICA INSIGHTS. We are keen to bridge the international gap and advise on long-term strategic planning, risk management, and communications as it relates to political, institutional, and development project planning. SERICA INSIGHTS is here to help interested parties in the West approach East and Southeast Asia, and vice versa for those approaching the US and Europe.

The Mission

  • SERICA INSIGHTS`s mission motto is “discretion, clarity, and originality”. We provide private, accurate, and actionality words in the ear to help you refine your planning, communications, and investment decisions.

  • Whether you are forward planning, amidst mid-plan assessment, or seeking post-project review support, SERICA INSIGHTS can help. Specialising in development funding, infrastructure and energy, private capital investment, and regional networks, SERICA INSIGHTS can help to align project planning decisions at the local level with regional and global trends.

  • We currently live in a momentous period of transition as old political, economic, and institutional consensus is transforming, even breaking down. SERICA INSIGHTS couples historical and conceptual clarity with contemporary data, institutional, and key actor monitoring across East and Southeast Asia to help interested parties understand the landscapes they are seeking to interact with.  

  • For example, if you wonder to explain and map the consequences of certain populations being in decline and others on the rise, or why Japan is building a road `here` and not `there`, or why China is developing Thorium Molten Salt Reactors, or why Russia and others have their eyes on the Arctic, or why coup d’états are so common in Southeast Asia...SERICA INSIGHTS can help.
