WHO WE ARE

Welcome to i3 Gen

"Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.”

"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."

"If you want something new, you have to stop doing something old."

"We need diversity of thought in the world to face the new challenges."

At i3 Gen, we are not your usual consultants; we are evangelists for strategic planning, blending the craft of strategy wargaming with the art of strategic communications. Based in the UK, our consultancy serves senior leaders across the military, government, public sectors, and larger corporations.

Our mission is clear:

to elevate your strategic planning through challenge and innovation,

ensuring your leadership is both resilient and dynamic in the face of complex challenges.

These simulations are complemented by our deep expertise in strategic communications, ensuring that your plans will resonate deeply with your target audiences, telling compelling stories that drive action.
