Our Senior Fellows are renowned experts who partner with the Portulans Institute (PI) to lead a specific project of interest within one of our focus areas: technology competitiveness, innovation readiness, and people and global talent. They are individuals from around the world invited to join PI’s community on a rolling basis.
Senior Fellows’ projects will produce novel contributions to an identified challenge and are sustained through collaborations with a Community of Practice formed by the Senior Fellow’s sector peers.
PI’s Communities of Practice (CoPs) bring together experts from both the public and private sectors involved in policy-making, research or the development of market solutions. Each CoP is led by a PI Senior Fellow.
CoPs develop cross-community knowledge and dialogue on how people, technology, and innovation contribute to sustainable and inclusive growth. Each CoP independently sets its own strategy to achieve its agreed objectives. CoP outputs may include publications, roadmaps or sets of best practices, for example.
